Hi Steven,
Ya, sorry about that. Slipped my mind about the mn-700
firewall not a option. But its obvious the BS doesn't like
the spoofed IP address here (obviously for maybe the same
reason a switch wouldn't like the spoofed IP, as it doesn't
match up in the arp cache or its address table).
Like I said, you'll prob see Spoofing reports in the BS log.
Best of luck
Raf
