hello
ok, this makes me feel a bit better.. :)
same situation here, the pmad's pass all the tests, they look fine from 
the chevron. a couple of them that i'd tried it with worked fine in 
ultrix, on a decstation, too.. 
well, if this really doesnt work ill see if i can get some time to look 
into fixing it :-)
(i'd really like to use this 3k300 as a firewall)
best,
isildur
