Operating Systems Solaris How to enable ping?a litte complex Post 303015700 by stomp on Tuesday 10th of April 2018 11:36:35 AM

Code:
17:14:52.804665 IP 192.168.0.2 > 10.2.0.1: ICMP echo request, id 15645, seq 1, length 64 
17:14:52.806881 IP 192.168.0.30 > 192.168.0.2: ICMP echo reply, id 15645, seq 1, length 64 
17:14:52.807016 IP 192.168.0.2 > 192.168.0.30: ICMP host 192.168.0.2 unreachable - admin prohibited, length 92

Well that shows pretty obvious, what's going on:
  • The icmp echo request goes out to the target
  • The icmp echo reply comes back from the target
  • The local host rejects the echo reply and sends itself another icmp message for the failed echo reply

So this points to your client machine, sending the ping, that the paket filter is configured wrongly.

Please show the current rules as requested in my previous post(iptables -L -v- n).

When you execute your ping, and watch the counters with the above given watch command, which rules seem to match for the icmp packages?

VDE_TUNCTL(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     VDE_TUNCTL(8)

NAME
vde_tunctl -- create and manage persistent TUN/TAP interfaces SYNOPSIS
vde_tunctl [-f tun-clone-device] [-u owner] [-t device-name] vde_tunctl [-f tun-clone-device] -d device-name DESCRIPTION
vde_tunctl allows the host sysadmin to preconfigure a TUN/TAP device for use by a particular user. That user may open and use the device, but may not change any aspects of the host side of the interface. vde_tunctl is a simple copy of tunctl done for practical purposes. USAGE
To create an interface for use by a particular user, invoke tunctl without the -d option: # vde_tunctl -u someuser Set 'tap0' persistent and owned by uid 500 Then, configure the interface as normal: # ifconfig tap0 192.168.0.254 up # route add -host 192.168.0.253 dev tap0 # bash -c 'echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/tap0/proxy_arp' # arp -Ds 192.168.0.253 eth0 pub To delete the interface, use the -d option: # vde_tunctl -d tap0 Set 'tap0' nonpersistent SEE ALSO
