The 10 network is because this is a class A address.  The netmask is a
netmask of a class A network.  My guess is that snmp is incorrectly
configured on the server.
Try doing an snmpwalk $(hostname).  If it fails, try configuring
/etc/snmpd.conf and refresh snmpd.
Also do an "ovobjprint -s"  on the selection name of the server, look at the
isSNMP field, and the name of the interfaces in the Interfaces list field.
If the interface name is only lan0 and not en0, en1, or ssw, then snmp is
not configured correctly.
