Yeah that was actually after a reboot. The first time I tried I thought 
the Qube2 was crashed. I tried again and I get the same crazy numbers.

You were right.. and the reason is fairly obvious!! Two cables got mixed 
up on the other end, so it ended up as having both the primary and 
secondary ports connected to the same switch. I guess this would end up 
creating a routing loop! (gj Francis!)


There is still one problem however.. with the bridge running, the 
interfaces keep coming up and down at what appears to be random intervals.

Anyhow.. that was just for playing around with routing, in my case 
forwarding is more appropriate (since I have different subnets).

I'll post another topic on forwarding tonight.


Thanks
