EFW 2.4.1 install at a remote school (6 hr drive) so upgrade is not an option at this time.

Upgraded internal switches from unmanaged SOHOs to Dell Powerconnect 2824s this past summer. Classes started this week and are having multiple issues with switches randomly going offline and needing rebooted.

Looking into the EFW logs I see the error "eth0: received packet with own address as source address" repeated 2-3 times every second. I don't know if the error was there before the switch upgrade or if it showed up after the managed switch upgrade.

Searching on the error brings up results regarding bridging and virtualization. Has anybody seen this error on their EFW before?
