FastEthernet0/1 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 0090.abea.3bc1 (bia 0090.abea.3bc1) FastEthernet0/2 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 0090.abea.3bc2 (bia 0090.abea.3bc2) Seems more like the Cisco's port's arp address to me than the devices. > Or have somebody pull the cable in and out of the pc, and watch for the > light go on and off on the switch :-) That's a option too... Only problem is that can take forever. :-) Cheers, Vince - vince@MCESTATE.COM - vince@GAIANET.NET ________ __ ____ Unix Networking Operations - FreeBSD-Real Unix for Free / / / / | / |[__ ] GaiaNet Corporation - M & C Estate / / / / | / | __] ] Beverly Hills, California USA 90210 / / / / / |/ / | __] ] HongKong Stars/Gravis UltraSound Mailing Lists Admin /_/_/_/_/|___/|_|[____] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
