Hello everybody,

	I want to know which is the format for token ring hardware address to
set entries in the ARP table. I tried the Ethernet one
(00:00:00:00:00:00) but doesn't work. Any idea ??

Please help. I need it a lot.

Best regards,


	Jose A. Berna

Token ring mac addresses are the same as ethernet, but the high order bits 
have special meaning. You have to ensure the address adheres to these 
requirements.
