Re: [PLUG] Endian firewall - was Swapping motherboards


Your approach (point the bridge devices at the new/higher eth device numbers) is valid and will work. If you'd rather have them back to eth0/1/2, you can either remove the persistent names via the instructions I will link, or simply edit them to remove the defunct MAC addresses and re-use eth0 for the new motherboard ethernet.

Carl,

I got it. For some reason the Ethernet ports are coming in on eth2, eth3, and eth4. So I edited br0, br1 and br2 to point at eth2, eth3 and eth4 respectively. I am talking at least on the green network and the remainder of the configuration seems to have been restored. So I think I am back, just not connected up to anything.

While I have it out I may try to upgrade to 3.0.0.

Thanks,
Eric


I've actually got a endian VM here that i'm playing with now. Are you sure that endian actually sees all the ethx devices you expect? What I'm getting at here is: does RHEL actually show you eth devices with the right MAC's and all that good stuff? That part's gotta' be there before the endian layer can do anything with it.

Carl,

I found that, but did not find anything that helped. After the restore, the addressing in the settings file is correct. I tried swapping GREEN_DEV to all three possibilities (br0, br1, br2), but still do not get a ping reply from the green network address on any of the network ports. The default addressing gives little to go on because the only file that exists is the settings file, the “br” files are not present. Also looking at the br files, all they do is to map to eth0, eth1 and eth2 respectively.

Eric

that's probably what you want to do right?
