not managed

Keep in mind we manage devices by the loopback interface (192.168.xx.xx) so a 172 generic
typically opens on a Serial interface of a corporate office.

You cannot ping the address as it is

You need to NAT it.

NAT’s

192.168.x.x – 1.15.x.x
10.x.x.x – 74.x.x.x
172.26.x.x – 1.2xx.x.x (1.226.x.x)
172.31.x.x – 1.231.x.x

172.31 becomes 1.231.xx.xx(+2)

ping 1.231.252.178
PING 1.231.252.178: 64 byte packets
64 bytes from 1.231.252.178: icmp_seq=0. time=170. ms
64 bytes from 1.231.252.178: icmp_seq=1. time=154. ms
64 bytes from 1.231.252.178: icmp_seq=2. time=169. ms

So this is not an unmanaged case.
