To work around this problem, configure a MAC address on the target device
that is always the same whether it is canonical or non-canonical (for
example, 4242.6666.ffff). [CSCdj48606]-

 as your host is ethernet it is canonical, so canonical entry in icanreach
mac tells the peer that it can reach mac-a(in canonical) when the host on
peer end sends an explorer to this mac..the peer knows how to forward.??
isnt this right?

i dont think you require this as the dlsw peers are not doing translational
bridging.

you can have the macs entered same..and when the remote node sends an
explorer with canonical mac (ethernet) which solves the purpose..

Sara,
If you are working with DLSW - it is always non-canonical.
If you look at your peers and their capabilities using show dlsw
capabilities you will see the MAC address exactly as you entered it with the
dlsw i canreach command - therefore it is up to you to put into the correct
format.

Chris

thanks for reply, say if i have some ethernet host, i want remote dlsw
peers to access, i need to convert the mac address of the eth host to
non-canonical in the dlsw icanreach statement?
