bbowler Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 We recently underwent a fairly major network redesign as the result of moving into a new building. Since the move (where everything changed IP addresses but 'names' remained the same), apparently the only way to identify a machine to retrospect is by 'direct' access, neither multicast nor subnet broadcast ever seem to find the machines. While direct works it causes "grief" if a machine leaves the network long enough to loose it's DHCP lease and gets a different address when it comes back on line, which happens frequently here. Some network info in case it matters (I'm sure it does :-) The server that runs retrospect is 10.2.0.30 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 and default gateway of 10.2.0.1. Most (i'd say all, but I'm not 100% sure) clients have addresses of 10.2.1.xxx, subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 and default gateway of 10.2.0.1. Any ideas of why PITON isn't working?

Mayoff Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 You may have something blocking UDP packets over port 497. You may also have subnet broadcast or multicast blocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
