I have been fighting with a minor problem of NetView (V6R0 on AIX 4.3.3) 
missing up/down status on systems that are automatically bounced during the 
night.  I poll at 2min.  So I decided this AM to turn up the tracing on netmon 
(netmon -M 2) to see what I can see.  

All seems to be going well except.... Unrelated, I have several systems 
dropping this message in the trace file.  I can't find any reference to the 
"received mask" thingie in the documentation.  Any ideas?


06:43:11 : .//nl_pinger.c[1653] : -> received mask from 172.16.155.3 
(cpqsw1.fic.com): 0xffffff00
