[Bismark-devel] switching issue on device

[Nick Feamster]

when I ping my server from the openwrt box, I can see it:

root at OpenWrt:~# ping 172.16.0.159
PING 172.16.0.159 (172.16.0.159): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 172.16.0.159: seq=0 ttl=64 time=1.326 ms
64 bytes from 172.16.0.159: seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.365 ms


but when I associate to the SSID of the OpenWRT box and try to ping my server's IP address, I can't.

Strangely, when I associate to an access point that is *downstream* of the OpenWRT box (i.e., a second access point that is actually connected to one of the switch ports on the OpenWRT box), pinging also works.  It is only when I associate directly to the OpenWRT box that (1) upnp names (e.g., back-bay.local), and (2) pinging the .159 address do not work. 

Any ideas what is going on here?

Thanks!
