when doing this, always specify a /24 netmask (255.255.255.0 or
FFFFFF00).  i think there's some silly code in ifconfig or if_net that
automatically guesses the netmask for a inet_addr based on legacy
"classful" addressing.

" # ifconfig le0 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast
10.0.0.0.255 up "

failing this use tcpdump(8)....
