Yea.. and it would explain arp having lots of trouble tooo... oh..
and I just found another way to generate arplookup errors that I
had forgotten about.
Sharing a hub/switch with routers running multicast routing protocols
can lead to these if you have 2 subnets sharing the same logical
network link layer and try to run say something like ospf on both
subnet address ranges.
arplookup B.B.B.x failed: host is not on local network
arplookup B.B.B.x failed: host is not on local network
arplookup B.B.B.x failed: host is not on local network
arplookup B.B.B.x failed: host is not on local network
arplookup B.B.B.x failed: host is not on local network
arplookup B.B.B.x failed: host is not on local network
arplookup B.B.B.x failed: host is not on local network
arplookup B.B.B.x failed: host is not on local network
Seen on a A.A.A.x box caused by starting ospf on a B.B.B.x box
sharing a hub with an ospf allready running on A.A.A.x but I
doubt that this is his problem, I think we found it above with
the missuse of dest-addr on ethernet maybe...
