Hi Everybody,
I have a problem with a local ISP who use Alvarion WALKAir 1000 equipment,
which does a sort of 50 / 50 routing / bridging.
The below is actually public addess space, just using 10 for clarity's sake:
Default Gateway: 10.8.16.1
The provider has given me the following information (changed to private IP
space for security reasons):
Default Gateway: 10.8.16.1
My IP's: 10.8.23.121 - 126
Subnet Block: 10.8.23.120/29
This works 100% on a windows machine but does not work at all on any unix
machines.
When my Windows 2000 box is plugged in I get the following:
C:\>arp -a
Interface: 195.8.23.121 on Interface 0x1000003
Internet Address Physical Address Type
10.8.16.1 00-03-40-9c-0a-99 dynamic
C:\>netstat -nr

Persistent Routes:
None
How do I get a Unix machine to misbehave and accept a gateway which is not
on it's connected subnet??? Is this happening because on Proxy ARP?
Any help would be most appreciated.
