Data 2 missing

Juraj Ban
Level 1
Level 1

Hi,

I have some troubles with ESA on first boot.

I cannot connect over IP address and in System Logs I see error.

Sat Jan 31 09:17:47 2015 Critical: An application fault occurred: ('egg/interface_controller.py configure_interfaces|845', "<type 'exceptions.ValueError'>", 'interface not found', '[egg/interface_controller.py run|1052] [egg/interface_controller.py configure_interfaces|845]')

 

So, I connect over serial and create revert.

After revert management (data 1) network is working fine but data 2 is missing.

Data 2 on HW appliance is blinking (it doesnt look like HW issue) so how can I get Data 2...

You should be able to do one of two ways:

1) run ifconfig > NEW and follow the wizard prompts to add in 'Data 2' as desired:

> ifconfig

 

 

Currently configured interfaces:

1. Management (192.168.0.199/24 on Management: mail.igo232.com)

 

Choose the operation you want to perform:

- NEW - Create a new interface.

- EDIT - Modify an interface.

- GROUPS - Define interface groups.

- DELETE - Remove an interface.

[]> new

 

Please enter a name for this IP interface (Ex: "InternalNet"):

[]> Data 2

 

Would you like to configure an IPv4 address for this interface (y/n)? [Y]> 

 

IPv4 Address (Ex: 192.168.1.2 ):

[]> 

 

The IP address must be 4 numbers separated by a period.  Each number must be a value from 0 to 255. (Example: 192.168.1.1)

 

IPv4 Address (Ex: 192.168.1.2 ):

[]> 

... <continue on> ...

2) Manually edit your saved XML and add in 'Data 2' for <Ports> and <Ethernet Settings>, mimicking what you have already in for the 'Data 1' sections:

 <port_interface>

      <port_name>Data 2</port_name>

      <direct>

        <jack>Data 2</jack>

        <jack_mtu>1500</jack_mtu>

      </direct>

    </port_interface>

 

<ethernet>

      <ethernet_interface>Data 2</ethernet_interface>

      <media>autoselect</media>

      <media_opt></media_opt>

      <macaddr></macaddr>

    </ethernet>

 

Save your edited XML and reload that XML onto the appliance.

Hi,

 

I tried both. If I go from CLI then I dont have Ethernet Interface Data 2.

 

When I try to import modified XML.

ErrorConfiguration file was not loaded. Parse Error on element "port_name" line number 31 column 18 with value "Data 2": The network port name must be "Data 1", or start with "VLAN" or "Loopback".

Can you send me a copy of your configuration file?  Run this from supportrequest on the CLI please.  robsherw@cisco.com

To summarize the resolution on the issue - after discussing direct w/ Juraj and getting tunnel access to the appliance, we determined that there is an issue w/ the NIC loading at the OS layer.  End-case, hardware issue on the appliance.

Even with hardcoding the MAC into the configuration for Data2, and assuring that the port and ethernet settings are present, issue still persisted.  So - further review from remote access tunnel was needed to review the appliance.
