Yes the ip address is reserved as what it was originally on DHCP and I've reverted the etc/hosts file back to its original address.

Dear Reader,
I have a very unique problem. Quite often my on board ethernet port( hme0 ) related message is appearing in /var/adm/messages.
The message is hme0: babble.. The port is up and alive.
What does this message mean.. Is the on board port is about to fail??
Thanks in advance, (2 Replies)

How do you configure more than one network on a single hme0 interface under SunOS? And why would you want to do this?
Thanx :)

avahi-autoipd
avahi-autoipd(8) System Manager's Manual avahi-autoipd(8)
NAME
avahi-autoipd - IPv4LL network address configuration daemon
SYNOPSIS
avahi-autoipd [options] interface
avahi-autoipd --kill interface
avahi-autoipd --refresh interface
avahi-autoipd --check interface
DESCRIPTION
avahi-autoipd implements IPv4LL, "Dynamic Configuration of IPv4 Link-Local Addresses" (IETF RFC3927), a protocol for automatic IP address
configuration from the link-local 169.254.0.0/16 range without the need for a central server. It is primarily intended to be used in ad-hoc
networks which lack a DHCP server.
IPv4LL is part of the Zeroconf stack.
avahi-autoipd can be used as stand-alone address allocator or as plugin for a DHCP client such as ISC's dhclient, where it can be used as
fallback solution if no DHCP server is found.
To allow communication between hosts that have only an IPv4LL address assigned and hosts that only have a routable IP address assigned you
may add the following routes to both network configurations:
route add -net 169.254.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 dev eth0 metric 99
route add default dev eth0 metric 99
See http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2004/qa1357.html for more information.
OPTIONS
-D | --daemonize
Daemonize after startup. Implies --syslog.
-k | --kill
Kill an already running avahi-autoipd on the specified network interface. (Equivalent to sending a SIGTERM)
-r | --refresh
Tell an already running avahi-autoipd to reannounce the acquired IP address on the specified network interface. (Equivalent to send-
ing a SIGHUP)
-c | --check
Return 0 as return code if avahi-autoipd is already running for the specified network interface.
-s | --syslog
Log to syslog instead of STDERR. Implied by --daemonize.
--debug
Enable verbose mode.
--no-drop-root
Don't drop root priviliges after startup. We recommend not to use this option.
--no-chroot
Don't chroot(2) the daemon. This option is only available when compiled with chroot() support.
-S | --start=
Try to acquire the specified IP address, which must be from the IPv4LL range 169.254.0.0/16.
-w | --wait
Wait until a IP address has been sucessfully acquired before detaching. Only valid in combination with --daemonize.
--force-bind
Acquire an IPv4LL address, even if a routable address has been configured on the interface.
--no-proc-title
Don't change the process name while running. Unless this option is specified avahi-autoipd will reflect its current state and the IP
address in the process title.
-h | --help
Show help.
-v | --version
Show version information.
FILES
/etc/avahi/avahi-autoipd.action: the script to run when an IP address as been acquired or is lost.
SIGNALS
SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGQUIT: avahi-autoipd will shutdown. (Same as --kill)
SIGHUP: avahi-autoipd will reannounce the acquired IP address. (Same as --refresh)
