I am co-worker of RbxCloud provider.

We have noticed that in the case of a specific network configuration, the current arping execution for IP addresses ended with .1, .2 and .3 fails, as it is not supported. In future network hardware of platform, .2 and .3 IP addresses will probably not be required and not supported at all.

Currently, no arping to all IP address does not mean no network communication, but degraded service until ARP lease. For this reason, this error should not stop the datasource, but only be logged in.

This behavior also allows us to gracefully discontinue use of .2 and .3 IP addresses in all future network configurations. It also means that the message should be logged in instead of stopping datasource completely.

Hey @ad-m, as this has a CI failure I'm holding off on reviewing it for now. Please do let me know if you need assistance fixing the CI failure!

The code change itself looks good, but I'd like to see us update the existing tests to cover this new behaviour. Thanks!
