HP computers return 'Q' when pinging from a Cisco router?

Is there a default configuration parameter in HP/UX 11i that will change this behavior.

Re: HP computers return 'Q' when pinging from a Cisco router?

Sure,

From the command line:
ndd -set /dev/ip ip_send_source_quench 0


should shut them up. To make it last you will need to edit /etc/rc.config.d/nddconf


TRANSPORT_NAME[0]=ip
NDD_NAME[0]=ip_send_source_quench
NDD_VALUE[0]=0

If you have entries already then use the next higher integer.

There is a patch for source quench too but we never bothered with it.
