Hi all,

I have a problem with my freebsd-systems. I have hooked up a Cisco
2500 which has an ethernet-interface with three IP-addresses (1
'normal', 2 aliased). 

On my FreeBSD-boxes I keep receiving messages like "Unknown packet
from unknown router xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx". In fact that isn't such a
problem (my monitor doesn't complain displaying them), but my
/var/log/messages is getting huge. 

How can I turn them off? Anyone dealt with this before?

Vincent
