Too bad there are no defaults that use the subnet assigned to the school 
or the 192.168.0.0/16 (no, not my idea - inherited)

Hahaha, that was the best part. It just stopped. And stayed that way too 
after a reboot, reboot of switches and only started working again when I 
ran tcpdump for some reason.

But another colleague did find this in the iLo report:

Time to ask the HP chap what this is all about.
