MP 4000 and 5000's not accepting static IP.

[nmfaxman]

Ran into one that I thought was kind of a fluke.
Set up for DHCP machine works fine.
As soon as I put in a static IP the NIB basically shuts down.

Can't ping, telnet, ping out and SMTP server connection fails.

Was wondering if anyone else has run into this.
I prefer to network the machines as static so IT has less problems.

Not seen it myself, have you tried doing a memory clear on NCS / NIB?

That was the trick I was looking for.

The only thing I've run across similar to this is when the tech enables WiFi. It basically disables the NIC.
