Is it possible to force a name onto an unnamed node? I would like to use ng_vlan together with ng_fec, but since ng_fec does not seem to provide any hooks I thought I could create an ng_ether node and use that. However, the ng_ether node cannot capture the name 'fec0' since it is already in use by the fec node itself. I have been able to create a round robin channel with vlans using ng_one2many, but I would like to use etherchannel since at least some of my switches support the fec implementation. A somewhat related question - does anyone know what the "Cisco-proprietary hashing algorithm" is for the etherchannel implementation on new Catalyst devices? Their documentation suggests that they aren't doing an XOR on the last 2 bits of the MAC addresses anymore. -Will _____________________________________________ Will Saxon Systems Programmer - Network Services Department of Housing and Residence Education University of Florida Email: wills@housing.ufl.edu Phone: (352) 392-2171 x10148
