Q: Local ping problems between C3750G and Xserve G5
I have an old XServe X5 box with two separate 1GE links to a local Cisco C3750G switch (and ~2m Cat6 cables in between). The interfaces are not bonded, so each interface has a unique IP address. Things should be immaculate, but for some reason I'm getting packet loss when pinging from the switch to the XServe. I also observe intermittent packet loss when accessing the box from the internet. This is how it looks:
switch#pi 10.0.0.2 rep 1000 so vl10
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 100, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.0.0.2, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 10.0.0.1

Success rate is 99 percent (997/1000), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/9 ms
Interface MTU on both ends are set at 1500 bytes so no discrepancies there. Any idea why this is happening?
