Pretty much the same as what I get on my FA310:
tlp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
address: 00:a0:cc:66:25:8a
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex)
status: active
inet 10.30.64.10 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.30.64.255
inet6 fe80::2a0:ccff:fe66:258a%tlp0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
I note one difference, my interface is set to up, yours isn't. Is your media
set correctly? IE you are on a 10BaseT connection to that machine. I
assume the netmask is correct etc.
When you ping the machine what does the pinger show in it's routing
tables? eg when I ping another machine I get an entry (from netstat -rn):
10.30.64.40 00:40:05:a2:69:85 UHLc 0 4 - tlp0
Is the arp address correct?
Certainly the FA310 card works in NetBSD (original install was of 1.5.0 on
this machine, it now runs -current)
Cheers,
