Wait your working over SSH? Oh ummmm, talk to the data center guy and have him break out his USB to serial dongle and a RS232 cable.

- js2 12y agoActually if you think about it, you can reach the server even if it's not replying to ARPs as long as it's initiating connections to other devices on the same network. Say A is the server in question (not responding to ARPs) and it initiates a connection to B. In this case, B will learn A's MAC, and so B will be able to reach A until A's entry times out of B's MAC table. The router for that network also has A's MAC, but you may not have access to the network gear. The intermittent connectivity to server A is what makes this problem so fun to diagnose. :-)
