        With Multibus nodes like the 660 you still need the ECMB version 2.0
        driver.  The same driver used at 9.7 and 10.1.  After loading the driver
        check in /sys/driver/ecmb, there should be a script called build_ddf.sh.
        It will build /dev/ethernet0. Invoke this on the DN660 and then retry 
        TCP/ifconfig.
  
        Also, the /etc/routed that was shipped with sr10.2 is bad.  Please contact
        the Response Center and get the patch for ROUTED.  If you rely on dynamic
        routing for your TCP communication, you WILL need it.

        Cheers,
