Hi Steve,
Yes I see that but typically don't you want a low
ESR cap for low power distribution imedance after
\the ferrite. This isn't an issue with plane resonance
(I think!)

20nH and 4.5uF have a resonance at 500kHz or so.
So its possible that the bulk cap is reonating with
the ferrite and its connections?

Charles and Zhangkun, if this is a series LPF somewhere in that network you
need enough resistance to damp out the reactive impedance.  If you just
have a ferrite bead and a low ESR ceramic then Zhangkun is right, that
network will have a high Q.  If this is a filter constructed as a shunt
notch ( unusual ), then depending on the external network, it may or may
not peak.
