-> How about making it configurable? -> -> Can't do that. Don't want customers to really know that we have an internal network. Not to mention, that you open yourself up for spoofing. The nice thing about the 127.xx net is that a router will not forward those packets. This means no spoofing in my closed un-routable network. I am in a closed chassis network that has some interfaces exposed to the outside world. We have 19 blades and many other "addressable" devices on those blades. So my fix to the 127.xx network address range (only the range to my address) works great. :) -stv - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
