HI All,

My interface card has failed.If i am giving the command to uplumb it i am getting an error.

ce401001: flags=219040843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DEPRECATED,IPv4,NOFAILOVER,FAILED,CoS> mtu 1500 index 3
        inet 10.188.24.18 netmask ffffffc0 broadcast 10.188.24.63

# ifconfig uplumb ce401001
ifconfig: ce401001: bad address

Please suggest.

the card has a vlan "tag". i don't now how to treat such an interface (no experience) but maybe you can find something usefull in the "ifconfig" manpage when you search for vlan...

Are you using uplumb or unplumb? use the below sample and see..

# ifconfig lan5000 unplumb
# ifconfig lan5001 inet6 unplumb
