Hi,
We have a brand new DL380p Gen8 with iLO4.
I configured iLO to use a static address (192.168.100.31/24) and I connected it to the local network.
If I try to ping/open web page/start console from the LAN everything is fine, and a continuous ping doesn't show lost packets.
However, if I try to connect through VPN (from 192.168.2.15/24) I experience a very strange behaviour: my server seems "dead" for long periods of time (from 15 to 30 minutes): no ping, no web access.
Then, suddenly, it starts responding for 2 to 5 minutes and then it dies again, with average ping times of 50ms.
During blackouts, I can connect via remote desktop to the server itself, using the IP assigned to the "normal" NICs.
Of course I tested my VPN connection: during blackouts every other client on the LAN is reachable from my remote pc: I can ping them and I can access services such as remote desktop, web pages, etc.
I had a look at my firewall logs (btw it's a Watchguard Firebox XTM525) but I couldn't find anything relevant.
iLO firmware version is 2.02 Sep 05 2014.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
