I want to send the following out again, since I only received 1 response
from the initial request.

> Recently we connected a Wyse Winterm to our network which goes through a
> Enterasys VH-2402s fast ethernet switch.
> Since the connection, whenever the Winterm is powered on I get the
> following message on all my Tru64 systems:
> vmunix: arp: illegal IP address 255.255.255.255 is used by hardware
> address 00-80-64-17-86-47
> I'm running a combination of v4.0D and 5.1A Tru64, both get the error.
> There are plans in the near future to connect more of the Winterms, so I
> would like to resolve this issue.
> In another division going through a Cabletron smart switch router 8600, I
> do not get the error, so I'm confused on what is causing the error.
> I check the archives and there was an old message from 1997 that said
> there was an issue with a Cabletron problem.
> I'm told that Enterasys is owned by Cabletron and this was installed in
> 2001, so I would think that the previous archive problem would have been
> solved.
> Anyone have any ideas on this?
