nkalkeri — Sun, 24 Nov 2024 07:59:54 GMT

I reserved ACI Simulator 6.0 sandbox lab,

When i connect to private VPN address (devnetsandbox-usw1-reservation.cisco.com:20285) its assigning an ip range of 192.168.x.x see below, while sandbox APIC in 10.10.X.X series

some discrepancy with SandBox setup

APIC

10.10.X.X

Ethernet adapter Ethernet 2:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : lab.devnetsandbox.local

Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::X>X>X
Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::X>X>
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.X>X>X
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.X>X>
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : ::

Been tried restarting my system did not helped me and seems some SandBox setup issues,

HI @bigevilbeard ,

Post connecting private VPN url ,when i tried to access APIC UI its says below ,

Hmmm… can't reach this page

10.10.20.14 took too long to respond

as i already shared previously VPN private IP assignment above, is it need to be in same subnet or it will be routable from 192.X to 10.X within SandBox infra ?

@nkalkeri the VPN DHCP pool does not necessarily need to be on the same subnet as the infrastructure. When accessing the UI are you using http or https? Are you able to ssh to the devbox 10.10.20.50?
