More details please. Are the IP addresses found in your configuration any where? Who owns the IP address? What other traffic ends up at those destination addresses?
That may give us more of a clue.

Looking at a traffic monitor built into our FW it shows the WAN port ip address of our router pinging various internet addresses. Users on all subnets are set with a gateway address and proxy arp is on. Does the router ping to determine the destination address is alive before it responds to an arp? thanks in advance walt w Walt Witkowski Primary Network Specialist - Sungard Higher Education Office of Information Technology - Delaware County Community College 610-359-5017(phone) / 610-359-4123 (fax)/856-217-4430(cell) [email protected] --To unsubscribe from enterasys, send email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe enterasys [email protected] ------------------ CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE --------------- This message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain privileged confidential information protected by law.
