    I am currently running a Bridged firewall that is setup with three
    interfaces. Two interfaces are bridged and have no ip address assigned
    to either of them. The third interface is set up for administration and
    is not configured in the bridge group. It is locked up tight. The
    issue is, I am constantly receiving the following error message:
     
    /kernel: arp: *MACADDRESS of one of the bridged ifaces* is using my IP
    address *IPADDRESS of the administrative interface*
     
    The bridge is passing traffic, filtering, logging without issue. But, I
    do not like the fact that it's unhappy. Any suggestions?
     
    FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE-p11 #5
    Ipfw
    Bridging compiled into kernel
    Rc.conf configured only one iface (administrative with ip address)
     
     
    Thank you,
    Don
