DL380 G4, Windows 2003 x64 - VLAN with mac address 00-00-00-00-00-00

DL380 G4

Windows 2003 X64 installed with latest SmartStart CD (7.90)

When I add a Vlan to NC7782 with HP Network Utility I get an interface with:

MAC Physical Address: 00-00-00-00-00-00

and the server will comunicate with nobody !

can you tell me how to resolve this ?!?!?

thank you

hi

without using Network configuration
Uutility the NC7782 works fine?

I mean not using that utility the NIC gets MAC address and IP?


just in case apply the latest Proliant support pack 7.9 and firmware Cd 7.9 also

hi

the drivers and firmware of NC7782 are up to date.....

if i use the NIC without Vlans everithing works fine but I NEED to use vlans....

If i create some vlans there is always one virtual interface (associated to a vlan) with mac address 00-00-00-00-00-00

the only workaround is to associate the fake mac address with a unused vlan..... but it's not very safe and elegant.....

thank you

hi

what is Network Configuration Utility that you have?
the latest one 8.7?
if so use an older version...

in that case here is the link where you can find all the versions

hi

I upgraded to HP Utility 8.70 because of a loto of blue screen errors caused by cpqteam.sys so now I cannot downgrade.....

I have resolved these blue screens but now i have this NULL mac address....

it's a mess......
