I am having problem with changing IP address of the network
interface at runtime. I am not sure if it is related, but this is my
config :-
1. colinux-0.7.1-20070326
2. pcap
When the system boots up I set the IP using 'ifconfig'. It's working
fine, and I could ping the default gateway.
However if I issue 'ifconfig' again to change the IP to another
( still within the same subnet ), then I could ping the default gateway
only for a short while. After about 15 ping replies, I will lose
all the ping replies.
Then I issue 'ifconfig' again to the interface back to the old IP address,
the ping of the default gateway works again.
Also I noticed that the previous problem I mentioned 'ifconfig eth0 arp on'
thing, is not unique to busybox/uclibc. Basically I tested using a full
scale
fedora system, I have the same problem.
Looks like there are quite a few "uniqueness" in the colinux networking.
Regards.
