Dual WAN working but annoying logs
-
Hi,
My setup is two cable modems with dynamic ip addresses but they are static enough and they are not on the same subnet. Below is my configuration:
WAN interface (vr0)
Status up
DHCP up
MAC address 00:40:63:xx:xx:xx
IP address 24.6.189.xxx
Subnet mask 255.255.248.0
Gateway 24.6.184.1
ISP DNS servers 4.2.2.2
4.2.2.3
Media 100baseTX <full-duplex>In/out packets 314576/156678 (359.02 MB/10.46 MB)

254 rateAbove are my two wans. I can see dual wan working by looking at the traffic graphs and other things like that. Now, my problem is I get the following messages in my system log:

Do you plug both WANs into the same switch?
-
Both wans go directly from modem to port on my machine.
-
Advanced page, "This will suppress ARP messages when interfaces share the same physical network"

Love you guys! Never noticed that option was there until you read it out! HAHA.
