It probably means that the ping response came after the expiration of the
wait time.  If  you confgure netmon to wait 10 seconds for a ping and it
comes back in 12 seconds, that is the sort of message you can expect to
see.

Subject:  [NV-L] Received Unexpected Ping (NV NT V6).




I was having trouble discovering a few nodes... so I turned netmon-tracing
on.

When I did... I saw quite a few mesages that read...

"Received Unexpected Ping... From Node xxx"

What exactly does this message mean?  Its like it sends out a ping, and
then forgets that it sent it out.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
