I had assumed that it was only on twisted pair media, and have never checked the 10base2 wake-up. The 10base2 transceiver uses considerably more power than 10baseT, and isn't powered up by default. -- Donald Becker [email protected] Scyld Computing Corporation http://www.scyld.com 410 Severn Ave. Suite 210 Scyld Beowulf cluster system Annapolis MD 21403 410-990-9993 _______________________________________________ vortex mailing list [email protected] http://www.scyld.com/mailman/listinfo/vortex
