Hi Michael, My network topology skills are limited... does this mean the following:
- my default gateway is on a 255.255.255.240 subnet - so is my devices real address - there is another device listed there (de0), no problems (internal) So, if I change the aliased devices to 0xffffff0 (255.255.255.240), they will be a-ok and not produce those message? I believe I had it set like that and the devices wouldn't initiate? Many thanks in advance, phillip. > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael K.
