5774.0. "Deregister if unreachable???" by NPSS::WADE (Bill Wade, Network Systems Support) Mon Dec 06 1993 16:03

    Any ideas on how to deregister an entity if it is no longer reachable?
    
    
    The specific case is a line card in a LANbridge goes bad so I replace
    it but it has a different hw address.  I can't rename the  the old hw 
    address to the new address as there is a known bug in the
    Bridge AM that doesn't deal with renaming. So, I have to deregister the 
    bridge and re-register it with the new hw address but I can't deregister
    it if its unreachable.

5774.1ERASE and REGISTER with new addr...SPANKY::SAWYERTue Dec 07 1993 12:004
    Try ERASING it (double line), and registering it all over again with
    the new hardware address.

    I hadn't thought of ERASE.  I'll give it a try, thanks.
