freebsd-update, route, custom kernel

C

Cherios

Hello,

A few weeks ago I had to recompile my kernel to have multiple routing tables, since I have multiple IPs on different gateways. I used SETFIB to add the routes, and it worked as expected.

Yesterday, I ran freebsd-update and it reset to GENERIC (1 routing table), however, all the IPs still have internet connectivity even though I cannot use SETFIB any more (max 0).

I am truly interested in how, and why this happens - I could not find a similar post on the FreeBSD forums or Google.
 
Did you rebuild and reinstall your custom kernel after the update?

Rebuilding a custom kernel, even if nothing else changed, allows uname(1) to accurately report the current patch level of the system.
