Duplicate ARP entries from MX-ONE server

Hi,

I'm looking for some insight into a problem I'm seeing. I have prepared some MX-ONE servers in different locations for a multi-LIM installation. Now before issuing ts_startup from the first LIM, I was checking the connectivity to the other servers, and I noticed that I cannot ping or ssh towards some MX-ONE servers.

When we got more deep into the problem, we have seen that in the routers which these MX-ONE servers are connected to, duplicate and conflicting ARP entries are seen. For example, for the IP address of eth0, there are entries to both the eth0 MAC address AND eth1 MAC address!

Clearing the ARP table would solve the problem for a while, but after some time, it will come back.

Any Ideas?
