I'm not sure if this is by design or an actual bug.
We have a system witb an 8280 with two active ethernets (fcc2 and fcc3)
We are running kernel 2.6.18.1 (and won't be upgrading in a while) out
of arch/ppc
Eth0 and eth1 are in totally different subnets.
We happened to have both ehternets connected to the same network, and I
ran a arping agains the IP on eth0.
Both ports (eth0 and eth1) responded with the same address, but
different macs....
sudo /sbin/arping -c1 172.23.12.114
ARPING 172.23.12.114 from 172.23.15.21 eth0
Unicast reply from 172.23.12.114 [00:30:D7:00:14:55] 0.838ms
Unicast reply from 172.23.12.114 [00:30:D7:00:14:54] 0.890ms
Sent 1 probes (1 broadcast(s))
Received 2 response(s)
It only gets both responses on the first (broadcast) query from arping
All responses afterward is then from the wrong port....
The ethernet setup on the target box:
