ARP entry intermittently is incorrect for guest - lose connectivity

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've run into a problem on my KVM host where a single guest will be
unreachable to other guests on the same host.  This host has 2 bridged
devices and guests assigned to each have the same issue.  I've noticed
that when I can't reach the problematic guest, the ARP entry for that
system is incorrect.  This issue seems to only be a problem about 75%
of the time when making connections between the guests.

I've checked the logs and haven't seen anything indicating a problem.
Here's relavant information, if more is needed please let me know

CentOS 6.2 x86_64
libvirt-0.9.4-23.el6_2.4
kernel-2.6.32-220.4.1.el6

# brctl show
bridge name	bridge id		STP enabled	interfaces
br0		8000.001b21a1cf76	no		eth3
							vnet0   # Problematic host
							vnet1
							vnet3
							vnet4
							vnet5
br1		8000.001b21a1ce4d	no		eth2

# ARP entry when it's the correct MAC

<omitted>.tamu.edu     ether   52:54:00:e0:1e:6f   C                     eth0

# ARP entry when it's wrong and ping or other connections time out

<omitted>.tamu.edu     ether   00:1e:c9:bb:cd:d4   C                     eth0


The MAC ending in cd:d4 does not exist on any system on this network.
I've confirmed this with my campus IT who manages the switches and
routers.
