Could you check if the arp table on host lists the mac-address of the loopback interface as that of router's physical interface connected to the IP subnet in which host resides?

Also if Client and loopback addresses belong to same major IP network address, check if client does not have a mask that is wider than neccessary?

Subject: Weird routing problem

hi group:

      I ran into this today and can't figure out why.Here is the setup:
Client computer's default gateway set to router's loopback address
,which is not in same subnet as client computer's address.But client
still able to access other parts of network.Anybody knows why?

regards
Alex
