A redirect is a routing instruction "icmp redirect" that says "go this way for that address". There is a kernel setting wrt accepting redirects or not.
192.168.2.1 belongs to a new virtual machine running in VBox, network in bridge mode.
What exactly have you bridged? which networks? The redirect is 192.168.1.1 telling telcontar to go direct instead of going via the router (at 192.168.1.1)
What should I do?
I think maybe revisit your network config. Telcontar thinks it has to go via the router to get to 192.168.2.x, but the router thinks not. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (0.2°C)
