If you cannot ping across your IX, you need to look lower than BIRD to
figure out the problem.
I would try to answer questions like: Is ARP resolving IPs to MACs? Is the
problem isolated to a single BIRD server only? Is it only IPv4 problem
only, or IPv6 as well?
If you can answer some of these questions, you'll get closer to finding the
root cause, I expect.
Cheers,
Jonathan
