We are running version 2.15 of freebsd, I have had no problems with routed
(router = routed in sysconfig file) 
or routing in general till now. In the past there was one router (cisco 2500)
It was our default route to the internet (defaltroute = 205.208.108.1 in the
sysconfig file).

A new router (cisco 4000 205.208.108.2) was installed to connect a remote site
and that is
when problems began. I am still able to get to everything but I am being 
stormed with messages at the console (and logged to the messages file) of the
type that follows:


Feb  1 03:30:15 vagon routed[92]: packet from unknown router, 205.208.108.2
Feb  1 03:30:16 vagon routed[92]: packet from unknown router, 205.208.108.1

these messages are filling my root partition (/var/log) so any help would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
