DevNet Sandbox- NXOS device connectivity issue

Ramesh3 — Wed, 23 Dec 2020 04:40:05 GMT

Hello,

I'm having an issue in connecting to NX-OS switches(unable to ping/ssh) in Open NX-OS Sandbox. Please suggest

Note: I am able to access DevBox , VMMaestro, VIRL server. Connected to Sandbox using OpenConnect VPN

Thanks in advance

Last time I used the sandbox .. and if I remember correctly .. you need to start the simulation on the VIRL server to bring the devices up

I tried to restart NX-OX using virl however servers always are labeled UNRECHEABLE

Here is a list of all the running nodes

Previously this passed from ABSENT to BUILDING and finally ACTIVE but the reachable state always remained UNREACHABLE

Update:

After a while all servers finally transition to reachable state:

[developer@devbox sbx_nxos]$virl nodes

Still after a while server 172.16.30.103 was un reachable but at least I was able to test the rest of the servers !
