Jeff I would open a problem report with support. There is something in the
mib that we do not like. If it is the ifType, which I don't think is, we
need to know that also. But Marks suggestions of data to gather is what we
will need.
Thanks

Michael, I assume you mean the database field ID 177 for that device.
If so, it is (ieee 802.3 csmacd). I only know this since it shows up in
the event stream as shown in my original message. There is never any
time to look at the object info since it gets deleted so quickly.
