Link local continous ping? (Solved)
-
I am running version 2.1.1 snapshot, have also seen this on 2.1, and my pfsense is doing a continous ping to my Comcast Netgear's link local address. I cannot find out where this si coming from in pfsense. I have even shut down apinger but the pings ae still going.
Any ideas?

Never mind. Apparently apinger was restarting after being stopped. Just disabled it for each of the gateways and all is good now.
