[nsp] hspr prob - can't ping active address

[Dale.Francis at barclayscapital.com]

Nope this was not found in 12.1E but 12.2, the no standby redirect was
hidden and I just typed the full command in there was no "help" per say.

Just sounds like this bug could be something you are seeing but I checked
affected IOS and 12.1 is not featured.

What I would suggest or the way we found it was to plainly debug ARP, we saw
that the Cisco would not send out ARP response, also we are running
12.1(8a)E5 on around 50 MSFC's here with HSRP and no issues. How many groups
have you got configured..??? There is a limitation of 16 HSRP groups but
that does no mean you are limited to 16 interface, just do not use the
"group" option or reuse them on different interfaces.

Regards

Is that a feature found in releases greater than 12.1(8a)E5 ?  I'm running
that on a 9509 MSFC2 and there is no 'standby redirect' .  Infact, I can't
even do a 'debug standby events icmp'.
