OT: odd ipv4-addresses failing
[dk] Shadow Hawkins on Wednesday, 13 November 2013 06:38:39
Sorry for OT. We have gotten a /28 routed to us. From one location outside (my home) the EVEN ip-adresses can be fpinged. (fping -g 11.22.33.44/28) From another location (another guys home) the ODD adresses can be fpinged Setup is fibre---ISP's router--switch--our router--switch--/28 machines. The machines are clones, firewall in our router open. Some clecer guys here have a clue?

Solved. Our ISP had left an old route to our new /28. So half the packets got routed to us, half some other way. I guess the choice of which route to take is decided on by a sum of destination, source, portnumber etc, since the choice were consistent, one source could get to odd adresses, another to even adresses. Sorry for bothering this list, now I can start regrowing my hair :-)
