Wildly speculating here of course, does the replica live in the same 
subnet as the original, and is the replica allowed to speak to the 
external DNS service?

Any typos in the IP address, netmask, gateway, or name of the 
interface(s)?

Are the MAC addresses unique in either case?

Is the switchport placed in shutdown, assuming a 
manageable/programmable switch?
