Just thought i'd offer my 2cents worth here..

IP Duplicates are usually just that. If you have a PC/Router and you change
or swap IP addresses then the sensor is not smart enough to know what you
have done.

If you have fixed the problem then the only way I have found to stop the
events is to stop and start the sensor - this seems to clear the memory the
sensor has of the MAC address/IP address combination.

Hi Paul,

Sorry I don't know how to do this - but is everything configured okay?

I'm not sure whether Realsecure bases this alert (a) purely on ARP
packets, or whether (b) it checks the MAC address in all IP packets.

I'd've thought (b) was an overhead so (a) seems more likely but I may
be wrong.

If (a) is this case then i don't know why your realsecure server is
seeing "duplicate ip addresses" in the first place. I must be missing
something here? Wouldn't it be looking for two different ARP replies,
over a period of time, for the same IP address? I can't see how you'd
get that with a normal dual-homed router unless you had some kind of
proxy arp setup, or had somehow misconfigured things. Hosts wanting to
send traffic THROUGH the router would ARP for the router's MAC itself.

Tch I do think I'm missing something here...

Jason
