    Dear All-

    I have a strange Problem on my AIX box.I have installed AIX 5.3 and
    configured the Network parameters. After configuring the tcp/ip
    parameters iam able to ping only my default gateway and hosts in the
    other subnet.but iam not able to ping hosts on my own subnet.What may
    be the problem.

    The subnet mask and other variables are correct i cross checked them

    The Details of my System are as follows:
    IP: 172.16.22.117
    Mask:255.255.255.0
    Default gateway: 172.16.22.129

    i am able to ping 172.16.22.129 and other network ip 172.16.21.131
    but i am not able to ping machine in my own lan with IP 172.16.22.106 and
    mask 255.255.255.0
    Regards
    Karthik

    The problem seems to be more related to the network - specifically the router - rather than AIX. Since the outbound network traffic looks to be transferring just fine.

    Maybe look at your routing table and see if there is anything strange in the table. Use the command netstat -rn
