I have a BS 5510 whose management IP has been acting up. I saw a couple other threads that deal with a similar issue, but didn't really solve or explain what I'm seeing.
Its a stack of 2 5510s running SW code version 3.01.
We have a bunch of these with the same basic setup and same code version, but this is the only stack that's having this issue.
On this stack, the management IP stopped responding to pings, but it was still forwarding packets for all the machines connected to it.
If I ping the stack IP from a machine that is directly connected into it, it will respond always. But at the same time, if I'm pinging it from a different subnet, it will not respond.
I found out however, that if I am connected through the serial console and send out a random ping to any server through the IP configuration menu, the management IP will start responding again to everything. But then after a few minutes or so, it will stop responding again.
Any ideas?
