Hi Priscilla, The device doing the pinging is a UNIX box connected to another switch. I have also tried pinging from a PC connected directly to the 1924. The device being pinged has been a PC, Notebook, NT Server.
I also like Micheal's advice. I did telnet onto the switch, under the Port Addressing Menu, I erased the MAC address (thinking that would place it in the same state of a never used port). After the switch port showed "unaddressed", I tried pinging the host on that port. The response as instant. Now, I am going to try this on a port thats never been used (need to arrange this). I will then see how long the 1924 takes to learn the MAC. I also thought I would try this in-house once I get a brand new switch. PS All devices are on the same IP subnet. Thanks, I will post an update.
