MULTICAST ERRORS

Hello,

I'm having these logs:

2004 Oct 07 16:59:18 GMT+2 +02:00 %MCAST-2-IGMP_ADDRAL:IGMP: Address Aliasing fo r 01-00-5e-00-00-01

dress aliasing: From 08-00-20-ac-3c-65 (31.193.60.33) on 2/1 to

01-00-5e-00-00-01

What it is supposed to be happening? How could I solve this problem (if really there's a problem)?

Many thanks,

Ruben

What is happening here is the sparc is trying to communicate with the default gateway but it can't.

The sparc try's this for a number of times and as a last resort it sends out an icmp message to all hosts.

The error being caused on the switch is a bug condition.

This condition is fixed in CatOS 6.4.9.

If you need any help e-mail kyri.kyriacou@liffe.com

Cheers,

Kyri.
