I think the culprit is the ifcfg-eth0:1. Its not the new virtual ip ifcfg-eth0:2 I'm trying to add. I remove the ifcfg-eth0:2 coz I thought it was the problem but after I remove it and restart the network, error still show up. Probably wrong broadcast address in ifcfg-eth0:1. Here is the snippet:
DEVICE=eth0:1 ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=10.12.0.2 NETMASK=255.255.255.248 BROADCAST=10.12.0.248 I change broadcast to 10.12.0.7 but still encountered SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable. Would there be other conflict? A firewall issue? @Jepoy 310. is only a sample hehehe ----- Original Message ---- From: jepoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Technical Discussion List <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 6, 2008 7:51:17 AM Subject: Re: [plug] SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable IP Address using 310 ? wow what is it... afaik its only up to 255 hehe Nelson Serafica <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: My client will be changing Internet provider so I need to change the server's ip. The weird thing is, the netmask the telco provide is 255.255.255.255 and also provide a gateway. I doubt that 255.255.255.255 will work but its the one provided so I give it a try. So I configure firewall and create a virtual ip ifcfg-eth0:2 and put the ff: DEVICE=eth0:2 ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=310.4.20.224 GATEWAY=310.4.20.1 NETMASK=255.255.255.255 When I restart the network, it says "SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable". See below: Shutting down interface eth0: [ OK ] Shutting down loopback interface: [ OK ] SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable Setting network parameters: [ OK ] Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ] Bringing up interface eth0: [ OK ] SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable I also change NETMASK to 255.255.255.0 but error still appears. Please note that I can ping 310.4.20.1. I have Google that 255.255.255.255 is not usable except as loopback. What might cause the problem? Is it the subnet or the config in the ifcfg? Tired of spam?
