Hello,
What software version are your CX switches running? I've seen RTLS issues in IMC where an upgrade to 10.5 or later on the CX has resolved the issue.

Hello!<o:p></o:p>
We have a strange behavior with our IMC 7.3_E0708P02. (This never worked in our environment, the problem also happend with older vesions)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
The real-time location search only works with Mac addresses, not with IP addresses...<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
As Layer3 device we use an 8325 VSX stack.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
If we call up the system information in the IMC on the 8325 switch under Device Management, nothing is displayed in the ARP table...<o:p></o:p>
If we look at the same on an AOS switch, you get the information about the ARP table etc. displayed.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
SNMP, SSH and access via the RESTful API interface is working fine...<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
The debug log in the IMC also says the following:<o:p></o:p>

<o:p>Has anyone ever had this problem?</o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Thanks in advance! :)<o:p></o:p>
