Hi,
After upgrade from FreeBSD 8.1 to FreeBSD 9.0-release (amd64) I've
observed an unexpected behavior.
From time to time, the static route's gateway I have defined in my
rc.conf changes to random IP address.
In rc.conf I have:
static_routes="spp"
route_spp="-net 10.0.0.0/16 10.250.0.2"
it results with:
#netstat -nr | grep "10.0.0.0"
10.0.0.0/16 10.250.0.2 UGS 2 373253416 lan
which is OK, but after two days the route changed to:
#netstat -nr | grep "10.0.0.0"
10.0.0.0/16 213.199.225.14 UGS 455 2058321449 lan
The changed gateway address is different each time, beside that I've
noticed one or two cases when the default route changed.
(changes gateway IP addressess are DNS ip's, popular sites ip's, but not
only).
No routing software is running, I have the same configuration as on
FreeBSD 8.1 (which was OK for over a year).
I tried to log all the "route -n monitor" output but no events are
visible at the time when the static route is changed.
Do you have any idea how can I track down what's happening, or what
could change the routing table entry?
Perhaps I'm not aware of differences between FreeBSD 8.1 and 9.0.
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards!
