NIC issue or other?
Got this error message stream on a server today. Never seen this before.
Does this mean my NIC is going south? Or is something else going on? I
tried manualy bringing the NIC back up but ifdown/up didn't fix the problem.
Had to reboot the server to fix it. eth0 seems to be working fine now.
