Connection timed out due to ONTAP not receiving ARP replies
Applies to
- NFS
- ONTAP
Issue
- When client tries to mount NFS export, get error:
Mount.nfs: Connection timed out
- The ONTAP LIF and the client host can not ping each other
- Since ONTAP does not receive the ARP reply, ONTAP does not know the client's MAC Address. Consequently, ONTAP can not connect to the client
