Hi All,
My network team is complaining that they get following errors on switch side, and they identified the source as MP console of one RP 8400 server.

I don't see any errors in MP network settings-
MP:CM> ls
Current configuration of MP LAN interface
MAC address : 00:00:00:00:00:00
IP address : 10.40.4.216 (0x0a2804d8)
Hostname : hubpux01-mp
Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0 (0xffffff00)
Gateway : 10.40.4.1 (0x0a280401)
Status : UP and RUNNING
AutoNegotiate : Enabled
Data Rate : 100 Mb/s
Duplex : Half
Error Count : 0
Last Error : none
MP:CM>
Do you have any clues, what is causing those errors.
Thanks in advance,
Anil

Hi Anil,
>>>Current configuration of MP LAN interface
MAC address : 00:00:00:00:00:00
IP address : 10.40.4.216 (0x0a2804d8)
yes your MAC address is invalid
Check with HP for resetting it to valid one if you have support contract
Regards!
Johnson
