Hi All,

I am using kernel version "kernel-ml-PAE-2.6.39-4.1.el5.
elrepo.i686.rpm". My machine has two network interfaces eth0 and eth1. I
configured IP on both the interfaces. Below is the snippet.

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:15:17:61:D2:16
          inet addr:10.77.247.172 Bcast:10.77.247.175 Mask:255.255.255.240
          inet6 addr: 1701::215:17ff:fe61:d216/64 Scope:Global
          inet6 addr: fe80::215:17ff:fe61:d216/64 Scope:Link
          inet6 addr: 1701::59b0:2825:8287:29b8/64 Scope:Global
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
          RX packets:77 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:74 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:11432 (11.1 KiB) TX bytes:7725 (7.5 KiB)
          Interrupt:17 Memory:e8180000-e81a0000

eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:15:17:61:D2:17
          inet addr:10.77.243.154 Bcast:10.77.243.255 Mask:255.255.255.128
          inet6 addr: 5abe::215:17ff:fe61:d217/64 Scope:Global
          inet6 addr: 1901::215:17ff:fe61:d217/64 Scope:Global

          inet6 addr: 1901::9d72:9c93:78c0:e6f6/64 Scope:Global

          TX packets:137 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:214114 (209.0 KiB) TX bytes:9211 (8.9 KiB)

lo Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
          RX packets:15851 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:15851 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:4133739 (3.9 MiB) TX bytes:4133739 (3.9 MiB)

I configured default gateway in eth0. Below is the snippet.

[root at ACS172 ~]# route -A inet -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.77.247.160 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.240 U 0 0 0 eth0
10.77.243.128 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.128 U 0 0 0 eth1
0.0.0.0 10.77.247.161 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

Issue:

The issue is IP configured in eth1(10.77.243.154) is not pinging from other
subnets(other than 10.77.243 network in my case). I captured TCP dump and
could see ICMP request reaches the eth1 but ICMP response is not sent back.

Please let me know anyone faced this issue and how to resolve it. I am
blocked because of this issue, any help would be really helpful.

Thanks,
Prem.
