Hi all,

I have a strange problem...i have sunfire v240 box and when i ran
ifconfig -a command its showing wrong broadcast address

eri1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 3
        inet 10.200.17.140 netmask fffffe00 broadcast 10.255.255.255
        ether 0:3:ba:a2:44:3

the rest of the servers which are the same network showing broadcast
as 10.200.17.255......
i tried changing broadcast address by assining the ipaddress again and with
ifconfig <int> broadcast <broadcast> ...
but those are not working..can anyone tell me command to change
broadcast with out rebooting the box

I will post summary
Thanks in advance

Eswar
