On my machine, I have assigned ip addresses for two interfaces which are connected through a cable. They are connected with 10G ports.
When i tried to ping the two addresses, ping was not working. later on my analysis i found that the arp request is not resolved.
The arp table entry for that ip is shown incomplete.
I could not understand why the arp request is not resolved.
Please help me with this..
Here is the arp request and tcpdump logs
arp
