Sounds like arp requests arent being allowed through. Once its the arp cache is maintained, it knows where to forward the packets.
Just my theory. -----Original Message----- From: Vajira Wijesinghe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 16, 2003 8:23 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: do you know why? [7:72352] I have a pix firewall and i have a strange problem. If any one of you have come across this pls let me know the solution. I have few servers at both sides of the PIX. eg. Server-A at Outside zone and Server-B at Inside zone. 1. When I ping from Server-B to Server-A, I get request timeout. 2. Now I go to Server-A and start a ping to Server-B. It works fine. 3. Then again I go back to Server-B to ping to Server-A, and now it starts pinging!!! Can anyone of you explain this??? I need to get this thing resloved and straight away ping from B to A. Thanks.
