SYMPTOMS

The remote procedure call (RPC) transport enumerates all the IP addresses to get the number of addresses. After the first enumeration, RPC will enumerate the IP addresses again to fill in the data structure. If the number of addresses changes between the first and second enumerations, RPC will not return the correct number of addresses to higher-level functions.
