The support for ipv4 over rose devices has been broken for as long as
the code has existed (I went back to 2.0.x just to make sure).  Try
this:

modprobe rose
ip link set rose0 up
ip addr add 11.0.0.3/8 dev rose0
ping -b 11.255.255.255

That should crash your box pretty well.

It has been a while, and we were (still are I just am not active)  using FPAC
we have run a lot of IP through it, and never seemed to have a issue, but
perhaps this is not quite in that area.

I  am sure Bernard will see this and pitch in with more info. I am
just trying to
figure out if we are taking two different pieces here.

Here in FL I have ran both NetRom and IP over ROSE through FPAC boxes
with no issues that I can remember. FPAC is a wrapper around the rose piece.
We probably have people still doing IP inside ROSE through FPAC boxes around
the state, not sure who or where, but it would not be a surprise to me because
some use SMTP between their BBS devices.


Bernard, any comments?
