Fairly standard setup. Issue: letting the system run for approx 2+ hours, the ISA system--let alone the internal clients--suddenly cannot ping any of the DNS addresses nor ping addresses. Doesn't end here... The gotcha is that the ISA server as well as the internal interfaces can ping the external (Comcast Cable) default gateway. So L2 to the brouter appears solid and the brouter's L3 interface is still up. In doing some testing... I cannot simply do an IPCONFIG /renew; I found a simple IPCONFIG release and renew fixes the issue on the ISA server and everything is up and going again. My concern is... This shouldn't be the MO for the ISA server. It should follow normal procedures and do a renew for it's IP when it's lease is up. It shouldn't lose all out connectivity to anything outside of it's external subnet's L2 broadcast network. Temporary patch... I've setup an hourly script; runs an IPCONFIG /release & IPCONFIG /renew. This is inapproporiate, yet all I have to run on for now. Thoughts?
