OBP weirdness

ok banner
SPARCstation 2, No Keyboard
ROM Rev. 2.4.1, 64 MB memory installed, Serial #16777215.
Ethernet address ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, Host ID: ffffffff.
The IDPROM contents are invalid

Does the above indicates my OBP is hosed? I tried set-defaults
but still received the same display when tried banner command...
Is there other commands to reload or force reload of the NVRAM
for Ethernet address and Host ID?

I'll try anything, it's a sparc2 so no biggie if I screwed up,
the thing was on it's way out the door...thought I load and old
Solaris 7 version and try to make some use for it...

NOTE: I've already visited the www.squirrel.com website for OBP/ID change
      and it worked, assigning new ethernet address and host id...but I
      want to reload what's on the NVRAM (original setting).

SPARCstation 2, No Keyboard
ROM Rev. 2.4.1, 64 MB memory installed, Serial #12648430.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:c0:ff:ee, Host ID: 55c0ffee.
