Yeah, I think that's the difference. We don't do unicast flooding ("send frames to unknown unicast destinations to every single port") because bandwidth on the VPN is limited & more expensive. Adding it would solve the issue at hand, but I'm not convinced that you'll be happy with the end - it might actually end up saturating VPN links and making users unhappy if you have "much flooded traffic" (which happens in some of the networks). gert -- USENET is *not* the non-clickable part of WWW! //www.muc.de/~gert/ Gert Doering - Munich, Germany g...@greenie.muc.de fax: +49-89-35655025 g...@net.informatik.tu-muenchen.de
