Hello,

Perhaps a stupid question but when running fping as: "fping -gas 10.1.2.96/27"

The output looks like:
10.1.2.97
10.1.2.98
10.1.2.99
10.1.2.102
10.1.2.113
10.1.2.114 [<- 10.1.2.113]

      30 targets
       6 alive
      24 unreachable
       0 unknown addresses

      24 timeouts (waiting for response)
     102 ICMP Echos sent
       6 ICMP Echo Replies received
      22 other ICMP received

 8.50 ms (min round trip time)
 21.7 ms (avg round trip time)
 46.8 ms (max round trip time)
        5.216 sec (elapsed real time)

What does the line: "10.1.2.114 [<- 10.1.2.113]" mean?

Thanx for your reply and help.

Krietings,

Arjan

I believe that means that the device at 10.1.2.113 is the one that actually responded for the address at 10.1.2.114. Is 114 a VRRP or HSRP address for that /27 subnet maybe?

Thanx Eric.

That could make sense.. I'll investigate the system behind the IPs..
