<p>Encountering the <em>duplicate ip on eth0</em> installation error for UCOS. The IP is not actually duplicated on the segment though.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>My experience with this error is that it is usually right; in the sense that <em>
something</em> is not compatible with UCOS in the network. What I'm not certain of, is what method the installer uses to determine the duplicate condition. I believe the installer is using an ARP ping to determine if there is a dup condition. The error comes
on a subscriber, right after the validation to first node check.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I believe the network may be using Proxy ARP (not completely sure); which to my knowledge, won't work with UCOS. I don't have visibility/access into the network but I do need to be able to articulate <em>why</em> the installer detects a dup IP (when there
really isn't a dup IP). I have quadruple verified I am using the right first node / security password. This is happening for multiple subscriber nodes too (same segment), so I'm confident it is network related, not fat-finger related.
<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Here is the Scenario:</p>
<ul>
<li>CUCM 10.5.2 cluster over WAN (not sure what the WAN link is)</li><li>2 sites; SITE_A and SITE_B (not sure what infrastructure gear is at each site)
<ul>
<li>SITE_A: pub&sub</li><li>SITE_B: sub</li></ul>
</li></ul>
<p>In SITE_A, the pub&sub install without issue. In SITE_B, right after the sub installer does the validation to first node check, it pops the
<em>duplicate ip</em> error. I have a linux server installed on the SITE_A and SITE_B segment.
<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>From the SITE_A linux server, I do an ARPing to the SITE_B IP addresses and I get the MAC address for the SITE_A WAN router (Cisco OID). From the SITE_B linux server, I do an ARPing to the SITE_A IP addresses and I get the MAC address for the SITE_B WAN
router (Cisco OID).</p>

</p>
<p>Anyone have any thoughts into this?<br>
</p>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
