I made a network reconfiguration and did the "service network restart"
gig. I, too, noticed problems. The broadcast mask was mangled. So I
did an "ifdown eth0" followed by an "ifup eth0". This restored full
connectivity. You might check if this happens for you, too. Then file
a bugzilla with your findings.
