Hi Dave,

Thanks for this, was having the same problem just before Xmas holidays and couldn't figure out what was going wrong.

Makes so much sense when you think about it not pinging when on this switch. A bit of a worry with switches becoming more intelligent that these things come on as default and assign VLANs as per vendor mac address.

Anyways, as long as its known to us it doesnt really matter.

Regards
Keith
