Kernel: Arp moved from - to
-
Hi
I have quite a lot of these messages in the logfile
kernel: arp: 10.0.10.19 moved from 58:55:ca:39:e3:19 to 00:24:36:a3:28:2f on lagg0_vlan110
kernel: arp: 10.0.10.19 moved from 00:24:36:a3:28:2f to 58:55:ca:39:e3:19 on lagg0_vlan110lagg0 is configured with LCAP.
Is this something to worry about or just normal?
-
how frequent is that ?
if this happens multiple times per minute with the same ip-address then you might have a static ip configured inside your dhcp pool
-
It maybe happens every 15-20 minutes… depends a little bit.
I don't think that I have configured any static ip adresses inside the dhcp pool but I will have a look. -
I have the same issue with no static inside the dhcp pool.
-
I know that 58:55:ca:39:e3:19 is my appleTV. Not sure what device the other MAC is… Is there a way to find out?

kernel: arp: 10.0.10.19 moved from 00:24:36:a3:28:2f to 58:55:ca:39:e3:19 on lagg0_vlan110You probably have two devices with the same IP address. This can happen in a variety of ways including:
1. a device has been configured with a static IP address that is inside the dynamic IP address range of the DHCP server.
2. You have two (or more) DHCP servers on the same network and they have overlapping address pools
3. you have two devices configured with the same IP address.
4. you have a device with two interfaces (perhaps wired and wireless) and the same IP address configured on each interface (possibly DHCP configured) and the device is switching between interfaces. -
Not in my case…

Apple TV is using DHCP. There is only 1 DHCP running and no one is using the same ip. But what I have seen when sniffing with Wireshark was something with IPv6. I have added a txt file. Maybe this tells you more? I don't remember doing anything with ipv6.

@serialdie: i'm guessing you have a hardware failure (broken networkcard/cabling/…) mac address 00:00:00:00:00:00 is invalid
@z3r0x: both mac addresses you mention are from apple hardware. the logs indicate both devices (or 1 device using multiple interfaces) compete for the same address.
ipv6 does not have ARP, so it can not be involved - ipv6 has NDP (similar purpose, not the same)

Do you have a Time Capsule or AirPort Extreme to go with the AppleTV? If so, that is, unfortunately, normal.

Wow, really? Why's that? Odd that effectively the symptoms of an IP conflict would be normal, but I recall seeing that once on my home network also between two Apple vendor MACs. Don't have a time capsule or AirPort Extreme, have 2 Apple TVs, a couple iPhones, couple iPads, couple MacBook Pros, and an iMac. At the time I didn't even have time to check which MAC went to which device, and it hasn't recurred so I haven't bothered digging into it.

It's a "feature" and part of the Bonjour Sleep Proxy.

I have bonjour enable on my nas and thats the IP of the nas.Thanks.

http://en.usenet.digipedia.org/thread/16243/200/If we disable the sleep proxy "feature" on all the MACs will the errors go away?
-
If you just want those messages not to appear in the log add the system tunable "net.link.ether.inet.log_arp_movements" and set its value to 0.
-

No. The issue is with the TC and AE, not the Macs, and you can't disable that feature on them.
If you just want those messages not to appear in the log add the system tunable "net.link.ether.inet.log_arp_movements" and set its value to 0.
I actually think the Suppress ARP messages setting will do it as well. If memory serves I didn't add a manual tunable.

Yes it sets the same tunable and also net.link.ether.inet.log_arp_wrong_iface="0" .

This is happening on my Home Server as well.. I have 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports that are teamed to a single connection.

Will this create an issue? It seems to be working ok

That's a different scenario, that's what you see when using certain types of NIC bonding. It's fine.

I don't have any Time Capsule or Airport Express. Only Apple TV, 2x MacBook that are here sometimes and probably a few PCs with iTunes installed, if that matters.
But I still get the errors in the pfSense log.
