Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Cannot ping default gateway Post 302539334 by Rutgerncas on Saturday 16th of July 2011 04:45:39 PM

In response to linuxadmin...Here is a design of my network.

Internet

connected to Router (Verizon Fios Actiontec) (IP address 192.168.1.1)

connected to a Netgear Switch

windows xp (192.168.1.130)

unix box (192.168.1.129)

(both of these are connected to the switch, which is connected to the router.

Hope this helps. I know it is not a router problem as I had it up and running before the unix pc was rebooted.

This is the route table setup by the system when setting up the network using the built in TCPCONFIG program. I tried deleting the route 192.168.1.129 127.0.0.1, but when I do that I can not ping my unix ip. I have rebooted the router, switch and restarted the network to no avail.

I don't know if this helps, but my router acts as a dns server.

On the unix box I do have it pointing to 192.168.1.1, which is the ip address of the router. However everytime I try to ping the router it hangs. I am assuming this is why I can not ping any other traffic on my network as my unix box can not access the dns server.

Also below I have posted my sdf file that shows how the network is set up on the unix pc. Again, thanks for all the help.

tgt-setup-lun

tgt-setup-lun(8)					      System Manager's Manual						  tgt-setup-lun(8)

NAME

       tgt-setup-lun - creates a target, adds a device to the target and defines initiators that can connect to the target

SYNOPSIS

       tgt-setup-lun -d device -n target_name [initiator_IP1 initiator_IP2 ...] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       Starts tgtd if necessary and creates a target according to the supplied target_name. The format of the target name is as follows:
       iqn.2001-04.com.<hostname>-<target_name> The target name must be unique.

       The  script then adds the requested device to the target. If specific IP addresses are defined, it adds them to the list of allowed initia-
       tors for that target. If no IP addresses is defined, it defines that the target accepts any initiator.

EXAMPLES

       Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections only from 192.168.10.81:
       tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target 192.168.10.81

       Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections only from 192.168.10.81 and 192.168.10.82:
       tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target 192.168.10.81 192.168.10.82

       Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections from any initiator:
       tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target

       Display help:
       tgt-setup-lun -h
