Hello, I have a FreeBSD VPS that has /29. I have already added the IP address on its interface but there are 2 IP's which I can't ping.
What seems to be the problem?
you added *all* the IP addresses?
or just the first one
if you don't add (alias) the others, it'll respond only to the one you added.
I added an alias for the others
ifconfig_em0_alias0
ifconfig_em0_alias1
and so on
Ahh.  I did it the easier way. :)
... ipv4_addrs_em0=208.79.95.2-14/28
that assigns 2 through 14 to em0
no need for all those extra ifconfig
from the 5 IP's 3 works, 2 which I can't ping
you'll have a similar range
you've rebooted since setting it up?
and you didn't accidentally pick the network or broadcast adddr?
yes I've rebooting the machine
like for me, .0 is network, .1 is router, .15 is broadcast
so I get only 2-14
tried*
same as /etc/rc.d/netif restart && /etc/rc.d/routing restart
try the ipv4_addrs_em0 method.  It's far easier to read
ok thanks
once I discovered that, I ripped out a  bunch of messy lines
you still need defaultrouter=
and maybe gateway_enable=YES
but those three lines suffice.
yours of course would be N.N.N.X-Y/29  where X is your base +2, and Y is your base +6
you might also verify that you don't have an overly ambitious filrewall somewhere
it works now
thanks alot
cool!
no problem
are you new to ARP?
I only added ipv4_addrs_em0=
I've been here for 16 months
Yep
you removed the alias lines too, right?
not needed.
I didn't add gateway_enable=YES
I commented it
I have gateway_enable because I have openvpn
so I have to route from my VLAN to my main public IP
and also my jails when I was experimenting with that
nice
I have openvpn before
but it messed up my settings
which eventually living me to reset back factory defaults
I had a hard time configuring openvpn
yes it requires a keen eye and a steady hand :)
ok - time to break this 40 cents a minute connection (I'm on a cruise ship :)
is there someone responsible for new orders available that I can pm?
up_the_irons is your man
balboah: i'm about to go to bed, can i help you quickly?
apparently not :)
anyone else getting packet loss?
any vps problems?
ah its back online again
maris11:  im getting packet loss
