I tried running mopd in debug mode and got the following message:
MOP  DL  8:0:2b:4:a4:23  >  ab:0:0:1:0:0  len  1       code   0 8  PRP
The ethernet hw address seems to be 08:00:2b:04:a4:23. I added it to the rarp
and arp list, and restarted mod and bootparmd.The uVAX hangs and I get the same
message from the mopd over and over again. According to the console connected to
the uVAX it's running the test cycle 2 but on the Patch Panel it displays a "1".
Another strange thing is that the LEDs on the DEQNA don't flash  when I reboot
the uVAX. Is the DEQNA defect ? Maybe it doesn't like the transciever I'm using.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
