Hi
i want to subscribe about network mailing list
Do you know about it?
and do you know about this address meaning?
inet addr:0.0.0.6 Bcast:255.255.255.255
it is automatically assigned from the system?
Thank you

Open a shell and type: whois 0.0.0.6 That will give you some information, but a transfer size of 4.5G is a lot. What were you doing?

Are you absolutely sure it isn't 10.0.0.6? Class A network 10.0.0.0 is a testing network these days (since the breakup of the ARPA net). Similar to the 192.168.0.0 Class C network. There is also a Class B network too. Rules should be for local routing only, no global routing rules for these networks. That way any sight can use them locally, but they should not conflict with each other over the internet.
it is automatically assigned from the system?
Check with the assigning authority (DHCP server?) to be sure. Maybe it was supposed to be 10 and someone mis-typed it into the router....
Thank you

I'll answer at the top because I'm not sure you're familiar with lists (top posting is generally frowned upon, so usually look lower in the message).
This is just an unconnected network configuration. So no ip address is assigned yet, and it shows it as blank. The subnet mask is default too, because if you had a subnet mask like this your computer would only be able to talk to itself.
FYI: if you want some tuition on this stuff, I'd just read through the lists more. Try FreeBSD.org as they are usually more helpful to newbies- check out the questions list. Read through and ask some questions and you'll get the training you want.
Cheers and good luck. I'm on both these lists btw, so I'll keep an eye out.

Excuse me, I got a bit distracted with feeding my baby girl. The 255 is the broadcast address- this is address to send packets to in order to reach every computer on the subnet (used by M$ networking for netbios naming and elections).
Netmask will default to the same as the ip where this has not been set yet.
