I have a Compaq Deskpro with a Compaq Netelligent 10/100 TX PCI Intel UTP Contoller ethernet adapter. The PC has installed the SuSe Linux 6.1 operating system. I can work perfectly with the network but sometimes when I shutdown the PC, the network adapter starts transmiting packets to the network and a lot of PC's in the network don't work correctly with the network. The network isn't saturated but the PC's affected don't work correctly until disconnect this PC from the network. With other PC's I can work perfectly although this type of packet is in the network. The packets that are generated by the adapter have the same destination ethernet address (01-80-C2-00-00-01) and the ether type is 8808. I' ve found that the destination ethernet address is a 802.1 alternate spanining multicast through. Whitch can be the problem? the network adapter? the operating system? I can't reproduce the problem when I want to do.
