Can you resolve the server name?
Code:
nslookup myserver

You could try telnet, ftp or ssh to the address. It might give you a clue in the login prompt.

Can you not trace it with the network team? From the IP address, they should be able to trace to the physical server from the switches. At least you could then see the hardware and perhaps get console access.

TRACE-CMD-START(1)														TRACE-CMD-START(1)

NAME
trace-cmd-start - start the Ftrace Linux kernel tracer without recording SYNOPSIS
trace-cmd start [OPTIONS] DESCRIPTION
The trace-cmd(1) start enables all the Ftrace tracing the same way trace-cmd-record(1) does. The difference is that it does not run threads to create a trace.dat file. This is useful just to enable Ftrace and you are only interested in the trace after some event has occurred and the trace is stopped. Then the trace can be read straight from the Ftrace pseudo file system or can be extracted with trace-cmd-extract(1). OPTIONS
The options are the same as trace-cmd-record(1), except that it does not take options specific to recording (-s, -o, -F, -N, and -t). SEE ALSO
trace-cmd(1), trace-cmd-record(1), trace-cmd-report(1), trace-cmd-stop(1), trace-cmd-extract(1), trace-cmd-reset(1), trace-cmd-split(1), trace-cmd-list(1), trace-cmd-listen(1) AUTHOR
