Sorry for the noise if you are all aware of what MOP is but if you
aren't aware of what it is and use Cisco products (especially in a
multi-tenant environment) it may be a good idea to read about it and
evaluate any impact it may or may not have on your environment.
MOP is one of those services that seems to disappear and reappear on
various cisco software versions and trains, almost at random. It would
be interesting to know how much of the old DECnet stack is needed to
keep this particular fossil alive.
It leaks link-local frames. This is harmful. We don't like it at IXPs.
"no mop enabled" disables it on a per interface basis - this is possibly
the only cisco command that uses "enabled" instead of "enable" for this
context, i.e. this is very ancient.
