Hi Guys,
There is something about TR and HSRP. Can't remember why off the top of my
head but in real world situations I have often seen 'use-bia' on TR configs
to force the routers to use their real mac-adds. Could be something to do
with the fact that certain token ring MAC adds indicate different stations
on the ring.
A quick search of the HSRP support area yields....
'Token Ring
One limitation of running HSRP on a Token Ring interface is that you can't
reprogram the address filter on the Token Ring chipset the same way you can
on Ethernet, FDDI or ATM emulation. Token Ring uses functional addresses, of
which there are only a small number available that don't conflict with other
uses of the functional address space.
When running HSRP in a source-route bridging (SRB) environment, the use of
functional addresses can cause Routing Information Field (RIF) confusion.
See HSRP Addressing for more information. Also, try configuring the use-bia
command. '

HTH,
Lachlan

not to my knowledge. HSRP is a layer 3 solution. has nothing to do with
layer to tech, like token or ether.
