Hi,

in r305382 on my router-box I see some issue with ICMP and UDP in IPv4 in
non-default fib spaces. PF is disabled. For example,

UDP:

setfib -2 host -vvv www.cisco.com 8.8.8.8
Trying "www.cisco.com"
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

setfib -2 host -6 www.cisco.com 2001:4860:4860::8888
Using domain server:
Name: 2001:4860:4860::8888
Address: 2001:4860:4860::8888#53
Aliases:

www.cisco.com is an alias for www.cisco.com.akadns.net.
....


ICMP:

setfib -2 ping 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
...


setfib -2 ping6 www.cisco.com
PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 2001:678:f0:1020:27:cb57:2682:767a -->
2a02:26f0:12:197::90
16 bytes from 2a02:26f0:12:197::90, icmp_seq=0 hlim=54 time=99.343 ms
...


Also TCP in IPv4 is not affected:

setfib -2 curl -o /tmp/index.html http://www.cisco.com
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time 
Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100 73038    0 73038    0     0  68094      0 --:--:--  0:00:01 --:--:--
68259


In FreeBSD 11 the networking worked smoothly in fib spaces.

Is it known problem?

Thanks

Jim
