Symptoms
Appears policy routes are enabled .
--------------------------------------
SL8500> network print
Host Name: SL8500
Gateway:
2B IP Address: 189.14.102.50
2B Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
2B MAC Address: 00:10:4F:0A:CD:EC
2A IP Address: 189.14.101.50
2A Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
2A MAC Address: 00:10:4F:0A:CD:ED

SL8500> network ip policy status
2A:
Policy Rule: ENABLED
2B:
Policy Rule: ENABLED

....Take a look at Doc ID 1322373.1. I am not 100 % certain this still applies as it mentions that this will be fixed in version 8.x (which you are at) but it could be that it is not fixed yet at your level.
CLI ping can be reached to gateway but not to host using policy route.
We do not have any problem for HLI transactions between SL8500 and HSCs.
All HLI packets are transmitted without any problem with policy route configurations.

SL8500> ping 189.14.21.1
PING 189.14.21.1 (189.14.21.1): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Network is unreachable
Cause
Missing additional routing table.
Solution
Configure additional routing information or default gateway.
Policy routes apply when responding to traffic - not generating traffic as in this case.
Solution : Added default gateway
Policy route DOES apply ONLY responding packets. Therefore ping (sending packet) DOES NOT use policy route table. As the result, “Network is unreachable” message is shown.
BugDB : 16102464 cli ping does not work beyond router.
