Re: weird problem with ping (I know, shame on me)

Hi Marko,
There appears to be a problem with NAT/routing at the destination side - and
I'll rope in appropriate people to look into it - but it still doesn't
explain why I can ping from the source switch but not from the source PC
that's directly connected to the switch. That's the problem I'm trying to
resolve/understand before I engage people responsible for the destination
side of the network.. :(
