  Problem Description
  ============================
  When dumping to ssh target , kdump failed:

           Starting Kernel crash dump capture service...
  [   18.542292] kdump-tools[2748]: Starting kdump-tools: ssh: connect to host 10.33.31.113 port 22: Network is unreachable
  [   18.542894] kdump-tools[2748]:  * kdump-tools: Unable to reach remote server root@10.33.31.113. No reason to continue

  [   19.310893] kdump-tools[2748]: Rebooting.

  But the weired thing is that nfs target works on the same system.

  I saw the same problem when dumping to medlp4 with ssh:

           Starting Kernel crash dump capture service...
  [   17.293028] kdump-tools[2733]: Starting kdump-tools: ssh: connect to host 10.33.7.181 port 22: Network is unreachable
  [   17.293692] kdump-tools[2733]:  * kdump-tools: Unable to reach remote server root@10.33.7.181. No reason to continue
  [   17.405333] kdump-tools[2733]: Sun, 17 Apr 2016 20:56:59 -0500
  [   18.536587] kdump-tools[2733]: Rebooting.
  [   18.903280] reboot: Restarting system

  but I can ssh log noto medlp4 before triggering kdump.
