| Aug 5, 2015 at 14:27 | comment | added | albinotuba | Mac OS 10.10 on one and 10.8 on the other. Wireshark shows an ARP broadcast from the pinging computer (10.0.0.6) asking who has 10.0.0.1, and then 10.0.0.1 responds with its MAC address, and then they ping. I don't see anything out of the ordinary going on in Wireshark. I'm almost completely certain I configured the subnets correctly. It's always possible that I made a stupid mistake. I'm using 255.255.255.252 on both computers. They both have Wifi and other NICs, but they are all disabled. Only ethernet is active. | |
| Aug 5, 2015 at 14:14 | comment | added | stevieb | What OSs? What does tcpdump/wireshark on the receiver say about who is sending the ICMP traffic? Are you sure that you're using /30 prefix, and that only one IP/prefix is configured on the NICs involved? Are there any other configured NICs on the system (connected to a mutual network)? | |
