Description of problem:

In one network is the RHQ server and the machine on which the agent is installed.
When i'm run the agent, in the logs the error is:

At the same time on the server the following error is registered:

10:39:17,490 ERROR [org.rhq.enterprise.communications.command.client.ClientCommandSenderTask] (http-/0.0.0.0:80-42) {ClientCommandSenderTask.send-failed}Failed to send command [Command: type=[remotepojo]; cmd-in-response=[false]; config=[{rhq.timeout=10000, rhq.send-throttle=true}]; params=[{invocation=NameBasedInvocation[ping], targetInterfaceName=org.rhq.enterprise.communications.Ping}]].

Errors clearly indicate that there is a problem in the connection. However, from the side of the agent a server (ping, telnet 80) is available, and agent is available from the server (ping stend-db.com, telnet 16163 during agent startup)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.13.1 server and 4.13.1 agent.


How reproducible:
I'm not sure how this happened, it just stopped working on the same day, before that a few years everything was ok.


Additional info:
I tried to reconfigure the agent with --fullcleanconfig, and also completely reinstall it, but nothing helped.
On the server side, I deleted the agent information when reconfiguring him.
Network administrators also confirmed that there is no equipment between the servers that would terminate the connection.
OS server: CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core) kernel 3.10.0-514.6.1.el7.x86_64
OS agent: Windows Server 2008 R2 EE

Additional info:
We tried to catch traffic to port 16163 on the server using tcpdump and saw strange sendings when the agent started:
11:27:11.201822 IP rhq.aplana.com.34262 > 90.101.168.191.isp.timbrasil.com.br.16163: Flags [S], seq 751041033, win 29200, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 2225543221 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0

There are two strangenesses:
1. The IP address in the hosts file for the agent's DN: 192.168.101.90, not 191.168.101.90, but a couple of weeks ago he was listed there as: 191.168.101.90
2. If we look at tcpdump -n: The connection goes by IP: 191.168.101.90, but the address 90.101.168.191.isp.timbrasil.com.br through ping is not resolved on 191.168.101.90
3. 90.101.168.191.isp.timbrasil.com.br - is not a legitimate DN agent, its DN is ABSOLUTELY different (stend-db.com). It's not clear where this address came from. The connection initializes the java rhq server process.

Adding to hosts:
192.168.101.90 90.101.168.191.isp.timbrasil.com.br
Does not help

The most interesting thing is that with --fullcleanconfig and specifying the agent address via IP 192.168.101.90 there are no errors, but through DN there is.
