OK, I guess I missed sending some information with my previous e_mail
sent on Thursday March 21, so here is the question again:


Dear Managers,
I have an ES40 machine running True64 unix 4.0G with a Fiber network
card (alt0) and a DE504 NIC (ee0). I am using the Fiber NIC and not the
DE one, so I have disabled the ee0 NIC.
Now, when I issue the command # netstat -in, I notice that some pkts
go through the ee0 interface, though it is not utilized and they don't
go anywhere?

Here are some useful informations:

Output of ifconfig -a:alt0:
flags=c63<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST,SIMPLEX>
     inet 10.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.xxx.xxx.xxx
ipmtu 1500

ee0: flags=c63<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST,SIMPLEX>

sl0: flags=10<POINTOPOINT>

lo0: flags=100c89<UP,LOOPBACK,NOARP,MULTICAST,SIMPLEX,NOCHECKSUM>
     inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 ipmtu 4096

ppp0: flags=10<POINTOPOINT>
