ip's on ovh network

[vps9Ryan]

Hi,

I have setup many, many vps nodes - but ovh's network is literally killing me...

I do a custom install (so i do not use their kernel)
I then install solusvm ...
I also then add the ip block - but the vps's never get any connectivity...

I am pretty sure it is to do with the IP's - since I can configure/troubleshoot on the node side and it seems fie...

Any ideas? I'd appreciate it - if someone with past experience on ovh network comes up?

Cheers!

Hey

What is the Gateway IP you added in SolusVM

[vps9Ryan]

i tried the ip of the server, and an ip of the server but ending in .254 ... they both just dont work. Tried all subnet masks too - no luck.

address SERVER.IP.HERE
netmask 255.255.255.0
network PART.OF.IP.0
broadcast PART.OF.IP.255
gateway PART.OF.IP.254

Try that

solusvm takes just the gateway and subnet mask.

If i do it the manual way and edit the config file on the vps, then it will be manual and I will have to do it every other vps.

I had installed successfully on Centos OS from OVH with their Kernal and added the IP configs and luckily it worked lol

I don't know how solusvm functions, but if it is anything like xen, you will have to use bridged networking.

In which case, you will need to provide the vm with an IP address, netmask and gateway (these all need to correspond to the IP address you are trying to assign). If you are unsure of what the correct values are, try raising a ticket with OVH support.

command to know gateway: route -n (UG is the gateway)

Got it sorted.

Cheers though
