RE: IP Address Conflict

["Harman, Roger" <Roger.Harman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I do know that 10.100.40.11 is the address of my Service Tools Lan Adapter.  NSLOOKUP comes back that it can't be located.  Our DNS server likely has no record of it as it is not really a "system" name.

There was a 10.100.40.11 interface defined for our "normal" Ethernet line - has been there since the install.  Never had a conflict before today.  Maybe a PTF stepped on it.  I know that this morning that interface failed and drove me nuts getting into LAN console.  If I tried starting it, it blew me off completely - so I removed it.   That is what has been confusing me - the old "what was the last thing you changed?".  Answer... just PTF's 

The 1819 LAN adapter is a quad port and I'm wondering if it has multiple MAC addresses.  I haven't figured out how to tell.

On my i if I do NSLOOKUP '10.10.1.211' it will return me the name of the 
machine currently using that IP address.  Does that help?
