I'm certain I'm using the right cabling.
Right now my ifconfig -a displays:
xl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lladdr 00:10:4b:24:40:a0
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex)
status: active
inet 192.168.3.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.3.255
inet6 fe80::210:4bff:fe24:40a0%xl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
which is my original NIC. As you can see I no longer have the interface of mac
address 00:60:08:0d:
8c:4c (previously xl0)
But why would the system act like this in the first place?????
