Hello Eitan, I am no expert but I believe Stefan is right, your having a netmask of 255.0.0.0 does look strange. The way I see it, I think you are trying to configure 2 IP addresses belonging to the same subnet (91.0.0.0/8) on your interface, but only the first address is taken into account (91.154.12.5 on sw259 and 91.154.12.6 on sw260). Hence ping 91.154.12.6 from sw259 fails. Setting a netmask of 255.255.0.0 as Stefan suggested should solve your problem.
