Logged packets from same net

trialrider
Hi there,

long time since my last help request... But here is a new one.

checking out printer connections from our remote ERP system we saw a lot of passed/dropped packets from one client (Server) behind our ASG to some other clients (printers).

Our ASG is our default gateway. Server and printers are in the same net and packets don't need to go through our ASG. Servers gateway is pointed to our ASG, printer gateways are pointed to their own IPs. 


[Internet]                        [Server]

 \                                    /

 +-------- [ASG] -- [LAN]

 /                                    \

[ERP-Router]                   [printers]

 |

[ERP}


LAN and ERP-Router are in the same network. The used interface is bridged. teh server is allowed to send packets to port 9100 to any IP.

ASFAIR packets weren't logged in the past. What can be reasons for logging internal LAN packets?

    Hi Barry,

    no, they aren't broadcasts. Printing packets or related to file system actions.

    I could imagine that the problem is related to two switches in our LAN. We got some new equipment for networking and communication and IMHO the switches were configured to request network settings via DHCP. The time before they were just switching.

    I will ask the technician to check their configuration or reset.
