We have three nodes, which have the following topology:

NDS-Agenda21Haus70 <-> sn04 <-> sn03

Something happened, so they came into a stable (for hours) but inconsistent state of their translation tables:

- sn03 has 11 entries in its translocal table and crc = 0x2b6d458c - sn04 has only 10 entries in the table for sn03 but still crc = 0x2b6d458c - NDS-Agenda21Haus70 has also 10 entries in the table for sn03 but crc = 0x74fb4f96

It seems as like something (erroneously) removed the entry 33:33:00:00:00:01 from table on node sn04 without recalculating the crc sum.

In the following are the outputs of the table states:

In the attachment, I added a capture of the received full table response from sn04 -> NDS-Agenda21Haus70 taken on NDS-Agenda21Haus70. I checked, that this is really an intermediate response of sn04 and not a direct response from sn03 (sn03 is not receiving queries from NDS-Agenda21Haus70).

Kind regards, Leonardo Mörlein
