The box is a hp DL 140 which has two tg3-based Interfaces on board, and a dual-Interface E1000 PCI card in its PCI slot: $ lspci 0000:00:00.0 Host bridge: ServerWorks GCNB-LE Host Bridge (rev 32) 0000:00:00.1 Host bridge: ServerWorks GCNB-LE Host Bridge 0000:00:03.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL (rev 27) 0000:00:0f.0 ISA bridge: ServerWorks CSB6 South Bridge (rev a0) 0000:00:0f.1 IDE interface: ServerWorks CSB6 RAID/IDE Controller (rev a0) 0000:00:0f.2 USB Controller: ServerWorks CSB6 OHCI USB Controller (rev 05) 0000:00:0f.3 Host bridge: ServerWorks GCLE-2 Host Bridge 0000:00:10.0 Host bridge: ServerWorks CIOB-E I/O Bridge with Gigabit Ethernet (rev 12) 0000:00:10.2 Host bridge: ServerWorks CIOB-E I/O Bridge with Gigabit Ethernet (rev 12) 0000:01:06.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01) 0000:01:06.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01) 0000:02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 02) 0000:02:00.1 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 02) The box uses dot1q VLANs on all interfaces. After rebooting, the VLANs on the Intel-based interfaces worked fine, while the tg3-based interfaces didn't answer to tagged ARP requests. The untagged VLAN on the tg3-based interfaces was fine as well. When tcpdumping the subinterfaces, I saw all traffic on the network, and especially the incoming ARP requests, but no ARP replies went out. Rebooting back to 2.4 solved the issue immediately, all VLANs were OK as well. Conclusion: Since the e1000-based VLANs work fine even with 2.6, the dot1q code seems to be ok. So, the issue most probably lies with the tg3 driver. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
