Hi there
Our problem is unusual one, we have x4600 system which has multicast
problem on the network, I don't know how, there is zoning on e1000g0
and e1000g1 ports, we tried to use e1000g.conf to force 100mbit fdx
we thought that this is is the problem, but still x4600 is making
multicasting, I need to find solution or suggestion about multicasting
problem.

WAY away from shell programing this one... Sorry mon. Be sure and try
some the general unix groups for fun.
Ok that being said,
Did you try to down then up the interface after the new config was set
in place. Don't for get to check the start up scripts, to make sure
they set the parms for the network during boot up. Also, peek in
"dmesg" and syslog ( see /etc/syslog.conf, turn up debug... ) see if
you have a message about an error in the parms that you did set, ,,,

2 cents, JB

Hi guys;
our awesome problem was solved by using of magic ) instead of poor
IPMP or e1000g interface
Such that; we have zone structure on the X4600. The problem is , when
the ZEN application starts before LDAP and JBOSS 3rd party process, it
is causing the multicasting, So not to face with multicast problem
again, the solution is, for starting procedure start the ZEN
Application last and, for stopping procedure stop the ZEN
Application first .
