Interface groups now in DragonFly – DragonFly BSD Digest

Interface groups now in DragonFly

Aaron LI has added interface group support in DragonFly, which is mostly to replace having to name individual interfaces in your pf config. There’s more work done than just that commit, incidentally, and he has a better explanation and writeup than my measly post.

Justin: Thanks for posting my work :-)

In that mail to users@, I made a mistake about the ifconfig(8) syntax, and the correct usage is:

$ ifconfig group
$ ifconfig -group

Same syntax as FreeBSD and OpenBSD. (NetBSD doesn’t support interface group.)

Hmm, the brackets are missing… and I cannot edit my comment…

$ ifconfig ifname group groupname
$ ifconfig ifname -group groupname
