I am using a win2008 server with AD to also serve DHCP and DNS. I have some wifi AP's that are giving me trouble (dropping connections and generally misbehaving).
The issue that I notice is that the AP's (there are 4) are sharing an IP address (the actual devices are all getting the same IP address) so I can only log into one of them…
I've never seen this kind of problem before and have no idea how to go about trouble shooting…
FWIW they are AeroHive AP's and they are all reaching the Hive manager
More info - my DNS server (and DHCP are at 10.231.0.33 and my gateway is at 10.231.0.254) here is the HORRIBLE tracert results:
AH-5482c0#tracert 10.231.0.33
traceroute to 10.231.0.33 (10.231.0.33), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets
1 10.231.20.254 (10.231.20.254) 2.983 ms 2.431 ms 2.819 ms
2 10.231.0.33 (10.231.0.33) 1.023 ms 4.588 ms 15458.396 ms
From another machine in the network (on a different subnet)
$ traceroute 10.231.0.33
traceroute to 10.231.0.33 (10.231.0.33), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets
1 10.231.231.254 (10.231.231.254) 2.322 ms 2.234 ms 2.222 ms
2 10.231.0.33 (10.231.0.33) 0.331 ms * 0.275 ms
so, my hop to the DNS server is very inconsistent...
