Does anyone know if the last three octets of a SUNS ethernet address can be used to determine the machine type? If so, what are the ranges and types that I can map with? [[Ed's Note: Generally, the first couple of octets are used to denote a specific manafacturer, and the last few are just used sequentially to guarantee that each device has a different number. I think you'd be hard pressed to make any kind of device identification beyond it's manafacturer based on ethernet address. -bdg]] John Matthews matthews@uswat.uswest.com
