One of the things that show up on the q v nic det that does not appear to
show up on the q vswitch det is the actual MAC given by the vswitch to the
nic, ex:
CP Q V NIC 1600 DETAIL
Adapter 1600.P00 Type: QDIO Name: UNASSIGNED Devices: 3
MAC: 02-06-00-00-00-52 VSWITCH: SYSTEM DT70L2 <-- MAC from
vswitch
RX Packets: 2562 Discarded: 0 Errors: 0
TX Packets: 576 Discarded: 0 Errors: 0
RX Bytes: 186892 TX Bytes: 78429
Connection Name: HALLOLE State: Session Established
Device: 1600 Unit: 000 Role: CTL-READ
Device: 1601 Unit: 001 Role: CTL-WRITE
Device: 1602 Unit: 002 Role: DATA vPort: 0078 Index: 0008
Options: Ethernet Broadcast
Unicast MAC Addresses:
02-06-FF-FF-FF-01 <-- MAC set by user for the nic
I'm not sure if it would make a difference with Layer3 mode. On SLES-11
you can't set the MAC on the nic if it's in layer3, but maybe it was
possible on SLES-8.
