Re: Bogon IPs traffic only seen by netflow, confined within a VLAN only

Take an IP from the source host network and add it as a secondary IP on the routed interface for the vlan - for the 
0.10.94.27 host add "ip address 0.10.94.254 secondary" to the router. Then do a broadcast ping from the router - ping 
0.10.94.255. Then show the arp cache for the vlan - show ip arp vlan xxx | include 0.10.94. - Do you see any entries 
besides the router interface? If no, you probably have a misconfigured/buggy device on the network. If  there are 
entries, you will be provided with MAC addresses which you can track down easily to the switchport in question. I use 
this technique to track down rougue DHCP servers, Access Points etc.
