Hi there.
I was attempting to install a new piece of firewall hardware last nite. To
make life easier on the network topology end, I set it up to use the same
inside IP addresses as the previous equipment. When I switched it on, as
expected, I had some issues with the machines on the network not wanting to
route packets through it. I was able to get all our linux servers up and
running by clearing the arp cache using "arp -d 10.50.7.1" where 10.50.7.1
is the address of the firewall. I tried to do a similar thing on our Sun
boxes, but no luck, they still don't want to see the outside world. What
am I forgetting? I dropped the old firewall back in the loop for now, and
the Suns are all seeing the network again. I know that a reboot would
probably fix this, but I *REALLY* want to avoid this option. Our
production machines take forever to come back up from a cold start, and
given that my maintenance window is way past my bed time, I'm looking for
another solution.
TIA! I will summarize!
Eric
