Anyone know how to stop our server from broadcasting the Protocol Type
0x886D Ethernet Broadcast packets over the LAN? This happens EVERY SINGLE
SECOND the server is up.

The packets are all the same and look like this in the sniffer:

Flags: 0x00
Status: 0x00
Packet Length: 68
Ethernet Header
===========
Destination: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF Ethernet Broadcast
Source: 00:03:47:3B:F5:1C
Protocol Type: 0x886D
Packet Data: (this field is blank)
Data: (50 bytes)
Frame Check Sequence: 0x00000000

Thanks in advance,


Rodger

Yes, as a matter of fact, this is an Intel Dual Channel NIC in which both
channels are setup as a "Team" which gives 200Mb to the LAN...

based on what I can find so far
The question must be asked
Is this a Intel "fault tolerant" nic? Perhaps "dual" channel

Check the Intel website for more config information
