Can anyone help me find info on this MAC address

00-03-80

I've done a search on the usual I use at work, but can't find
anything on this.

Its causing some grief on our frame network

 

That's not long enough to be a MAC address for a start...

 

I know, you should only need the first 3 to find the vendor!

We got spanning tree elections, just found its this mac doing it, so we gonna shut down spanning tree on the ethernet port.

 

a MAC address will look like this

00-B0-D0-D5-50-14

 

DOH - the joys of simultaneous posting - I have a VB routine for getting the MAC address - as a last resort you could give it to your users, then they could run it, and if theres matches then you could do something that way - let me know if it's any use to you....

 

..but if it's the vendor-specific bit that code belongs to:

00-03-80 (hex) SSH Communications Security Corp.
000380 (base 16) SSH Communications Security Corp.
Fredrikinkatu 42
Fin 0100 Helsinki
FINLAND

according to the IEEE

 

Cheers Carl, I found that info aswell god knows whats thats all about, never heard of them!

Hopefully shutting down spanning tree should stop the problem..we are going to setup our own spanning tree domain

Well I've heard of ssh (i.e. secure shell) but I wasn't aware of SSH as a company.

You arent using load balancing or fail on fault network cards such as teaming with compaq, as these could possibly cause problems (or so our network guys keep telling us!)
