Long time to ping

We currently have two nets 192.168.1-and-2.0 and a pix with an interface to each net which was our machine's default gateway (192.168.1-and-2.10 respectively).

We added a point to point circuit on the 192.168.1.0 net and move the default gateway of all .1 machines over to the new router with a route saying to get anywhere outside this network, use the pix.

Now when pinging from the .1 net to the .2 net using Solaris, it is slow and we get this message....
# ping machine1
ICMP Net redirect from gateway 192.168.1.11
to 192.168.1.10 for 192.168.2.167
machine1 is alive

This isn't a problem, but I am trying to understand. I cleared the arp table so it would recache.... Is it just caching ARP information at this point because after a couple tries, this message goes away. Speed is just fine.

Curious....
Thanks!
Steve
