Hi,
Today we had duplicate ip issues between two SVIs with the same ip address ; one SVI was admin down...?
We saw some traffic on the down/down SVI :
#sh int vlan402
Vlan402 is administratively down, line protocol is down , Autostate Enabled
Hardware is Ethernet SVI, address is 4cbc.48a5.827b (bia 4cbc.48a5.827b)
Description: Vlan Mgmt

Hello
Not so sure i understand, Duplicate ip addressing is being reported . so what is the question?

Hi Paul,
Thanks for your quick reply.
My question is, how is it possible to have a duplicate ip sourced by an inactive SVI (admin down), and traffic raising on that SVI ?
Thanks,
YVI

Hello
If the interface is in a admin down state then it possible to manually duplicate an interface address with another and the software will let you do it, The switch/router should complain about it however i think the duplicate addressing will still take.
So that's a possibility for the duplicate, as for the interface stats i see the interface counter haven't been cleared so it is possible your seeing a ghost entry?
Another possible reason it could be a bug has @Georg Pauwen mentioned?
