I've seen this mentioned before but I fail to understand the meaning. By layer three are you saying do not use VSWITCH? Al Schilla State of Minnesota

Doesn't matter what IP address I use, whenever I issue ifconfig > eth1.11 ... loop occurs. Am I missing some service? It is my understanding that SLES9 layer 2 support is broken. There is a developerWorks patch that was picked up for SLES8, but hasn't been picked up for SLES9 (that is, hasn't been put in a service pack). I don't know which patch fixed the problem. I have heard from others that Novelle knows about the problem. If you have a support contract, ask them for the fix. Otherwise, try layer 3.
