The first thing I noticed is that SK0 is only at half duplex
OP says the cable is out. However "auto" and "duplex full" are
likely to not be compatible (they aren't for 10/100, though I'm
not sure about gig).
I will double check that when i'm at work again tomorrow.
The switch port is set to 10/100.
I am attaching ifconfig and dmesg output. The physical interface, sk0 is
shown as having "no carrier", this is because i had to pull the plug
while taking the information because another machine (our old firewall)
was running with the same address.
What steps are taken to clear ARP caches, etc?
I did an "arp -d <ip_of_firewall>" on the accessing host.
However, the setup worked perfectly, when i switched to non-vlan mode,
so i do not think it is an arp problem.
I did have to select different port switches for non-vlan mode, though.
So i cannot rule out a problem with the switch port. I will ask the
switch admin for help, maybe there is some debugging facility on the cisco.
Any other ideas?
