I was using ethereal to debug a java application when I picked up something I
didn't recognize.
I have a WinY2k workstation chirping a UDP (source and destination port 402)
packet to 225.1.2.3. The destination MAC appears to 01:00:5e:01:02:03, which
isn't a vendor ethereal recognizes and not one I can locate on the LAN. I'm
picking it up three switch hops away.
Other than this all the traffic is accounted for.
The packet looks like:
0000 01 00 5e 01 02 03 00 03 47 62 a8 3c 08 00 45 00 ..^..... Gb¨<..E.

Anyone have a clue what this is? (I hope I don't realize what it is 3 seconds
after pressing send.... I hate it when that happens).
