XenServer Networking

@BRRABill only bridge network does the job, as it allows dhcp. with other network formats im not able to give ip to my guest vm's inside xen
-
@dafyre yes they are getting from the lan,

From one of your VMs:
ping LAN IP of XenServer host.
ping LAN IP of VirtualBox host.
ping LAN IP of another system on your LAN that is not your VirtualBox host
ping LAN IP of your router.Let us know which ones work and which ones do not.
-
Is the VM getting DHCP? or did you manually assign the IP?
-
@Dashrender I assugned the ip, statically

don't - see if it will get a DHCP address from your LAN
-
Please confirm that from the XS console that you can ping say 8.8.8.8.
Where do you have XenCenter installed? on your local windows desktop?
-
@dafyre i have another VM in VBOX (Windows) and i cannot ping that. the other VM's that reside in Vbox even xen host i can ping them
-
@Dashrender yes on my windows machine, i can ping google, and also i can download iso-s, i've used wget multiple times

so you have
(1)Windows desktop (host/physical install)
(1.1)-----Vbox
(1.1.1)---------XenServer
(1.1.1.1)-----------------CentOS
(1.1.2)---------Windows desktop (VM)You said you can ping 1.1.1, but not 1.1.2? is that right?
-
@Dashrender i have 1.1.3 xubuntu
-
@Dashrender 1.1.4 smothwall, i can ping all of them,, except 1.1.2....
-
@Alket_tux Can the xubuntu ping your gateway?
-
@travisdh1 yes it can ping my gateway
-
@Alket_tux said in XenServer Networking:
@travisdh1 yes it can ping my gateway
Ok, then it's probably something to do with DNS. What is in the /etc/resolv.conf?

Or he actually said the Gately wrong in this machine. That he can ping it is not relevant it's in the subnet.

I'm not sure what problem we're solving anymore. But the OP mentions the his Windows VM can't ping anything, and nothing can ping it. I would guess that maybe a subnet mask issue or vNIC issue.
-
@travisdh1 this is the output of /etc/resolv.conf
search mydomain
nameserver 192.168.10.1 (This is my gateway)
~ -
@Dashrender now i can oing 1.1.2.. as i turned down firewall in 1,1,2

Well that sounds about right. I think the windows firewall by default doesn't allow the machine to be pinged.
Is everything working now?
