Could be that the switch in front of the servers does not like to see
the same MAC on two ports or something like that.

Protocol 1 once per second should be ICMP PING so this is just CLUSTERIP
complaining that it can't calculate sourceip-sourceport for those packets
(ICMP has no source port).

So maybe try recording the traffic using tcpdump on both servers and
see if any requests are comming in at all from the network equipment.
