When one of the machine isn’t active for a while it seems to disappear. Even when it’s active some of the machines have intermittent errors pinging it as like every 10-30 seconds one of these ping results appear:
92 bytes from tl-er5120 (192.168.71.1): Redirect Host(New addr: 192.168.71.193)
Vr HL TOS Len ID Flg off TTL Pro cks Src Dst
4 5 00 0054 05de 0 0000 40 01 644d 192.168.71.108 192.168.71.193
Sometimes even a simple
Request timeout for icmp_seq 6900
So I need to dig into ICMP “Redirect Host” .
It might be a simple ARP thing like mac mini – Why the different results for ping? Or why is the Time Capsule getting involved? – Ask Different [WayBack] but like usual stuff I bump into is of a more complex kind so I’ve archived at least these:

Not sure when this happened but the CIDR list is no more [WayBack] https://www.whatsapp.com/cidr.txt:

In the past it was the place to get the CIDR so you could either block or allow WhatsApp traffic: [earlier WayBack]
It is still widely cited as way to regulate WhatsApp traffic, for instance at these places:
Time to find an automated way to get the replacement list. Maybe the below helps (via [WayBack] Block facebook messenger and whatsApp on Dlink router – Super User)

This will come in useful one day:
Notes for monitoring at [WayBack] Multi-WAN – PFSenseDocs: Gateway Groups
- monitoring packet loss on ADSL is cumbersome depending on the ADSL distance
- member down is the easiest to monitor, but on fiber can fail to detect packet loss (the connection seems online, but in fact doesn’t provide traffic)

Nice find on not so nice packet conversion: [WayBack] Fun with IPv6 We were investigating packet loss. The loss rate was very low (smaller than 1 of 1000) but as UDP was used, it caused rare but noticeab… – Martin Seeger – Google+
Basically the load balancer could not cope well converting empty IPv4 UDP checksums to IPv6 and back.
Or like Kris mentioned it: [WayBack] Null. In Zahlen: -1., causing a nice set of comments to be posted on short term solutions versus long time forgotten problems.

Since I will likely have to enable Skype in a relatively restricted environment, here are some links that likely will help me getting IP lists to open up:
