It's normal on a guest lan. That's what mine say too:

I think your problem lies elsewhere.
Is all of your routing working correctly? In my case
LNX60:~ # route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse
Iface

0.0.0.0 10.12.10.1 0.0.0.0 UG0 00 hsi0
10.12.10.1 is owned by VM TCPIP and it routes to the external network using
OSPF on MPROUTE.

Subject: [LINUX-390] guestlan issues
Hello O wise ones... :)
I've been working with iucv until now and I'm trying to switch to guestlan
(My Zvm version doesn't support vswitch).
I''m following the instructions in the excellent "Networking Overview for
linux on Zseries" refrenced here - but something isn't working for me at the
last part (configuration of linux to use the coupled virtual
nic.)
I think the heart of the problem is that when I ifconfig eth0 I get a
00:00:00:00:00:00 HWaddr.
This is although I I see the mac id when I query nic and the nic creation
and coupling seem as they have been performed well (no
errors...)
So what does a blank HWaddr mean?
regards
Lior.
