matches, but keep searching in case there's an interface where both the
hardware address and description string match.
Matching only on the hardware address is not sufficient, because several
interfaces will have the same address in the case of interface teaming.
See the log message for r17542.
But this revision broke interface matching for Luis MartinGarcia and Rob
Nicholls. For Luis, the call to PacketRequest with OID_GEN_FRIENDLY_NAME
was failing. For Rob, the friendly name differed slightly from the
description provided by libpcap. This change makes a hardware address
match good enough but will prefer a description match too.
factor of 1000. I realized there is a bad ambiguity in
The default unit for --host-timeout is seconds (since April 2010),
so your time of "10000" is 2.8 hours.
It could be interpreted as "seconds since April 2010" which is a strange
way to specify a length of time and would be confusing if you took it
that way. I have changed it to

o Fixed the assignment of interface aliases to directly connected
routes on Linux, which was broken in 5.30BETA1 (it always assigned
the base interface instead of the alias). This was visible in the
host.interface variable passed to NSE scripts. The bug was reported

in getsysroutes_proc. This was already being done for nonâdirectly
connected routes, those with a gateway. Victor Rudnev reported this bug.
The /proc/net/route file doesn't contain alias qualifications so we must
match them up after the fact with the interface table. When the gateway
address isn't set, use the route destination for matching instead.
For example, with these interfaces and routing table,
