    I set the second promo OID to "true" and I didnt recieve any traffic. It is
    five in or morning, but i would think that i would at least see something.
    So i was wondering if anyone has had any seccuess with this? FWI - When i
    send a set command to the CM it, sometimes, sends a arp request to the HFC
    subnet. So im thinking its sending traps letting the CMTS know that its
    being access (beware).
