hi all,
continues getting many "ICMP Port unreachable" messages while i ping a host that is within same subnet. both servers are running solaris 10 U6. is there any wrong configuration of IPMP ?

This isn't a Java question. Try the Solaris forum.

New Install - ICMP Host Unreachable from gateway

Hi team,
I'm configuring a new solaris x86 box for the first time in a long time and I'm running into a problem that has me stumped.
I just installed Solaris 10 v7 on a P4 Dell box with an intel pro1000 adapter loaded.
Installed using ZFS and install went well. I set a static IP of 192.168.1.70 on a proper 192.168.1.x lan.
After install, everything seems to work fine but cannot ping a FQDN such as www.google.com, etc.
at first, I tried to join a local domain - maxximgroup.com and my computer name is set to sunzilla.
Here's my network config files;
sunzilla is set up with static IP = 192.168.1.70
# ifconfig -a

And /etc/hosts shows host name sunzilla associated w/ 192.168.1.70...
# cat /etc/hosts
# Internet host table

127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.70 sunzilla loghost
And my resolv.conf file shows my internal DNS routers as well as a 3rd I added (4.2.2.2) just in case...
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain maxximgroup.com
nameserver 192.168.1.20
nameserver 192.168.1.22
nameserver 4.2.2.2
search maxximgroup.com
I noticed the /etc/defaultrouter file was MISSING... so I created one pointing to my router...
# cat /etc/defaultrouter
192.168.1.1
And finally, I checked the /etc/nsswitch.conf file and it does indeed show hosts & ipnodes --> files & dns ...

# ping mycloud.local

Can anyone provide some guidance pls?

Thanks Robert. You were absolutely on the right track. It turns out that in my "rush" to get my new ZFS "toy" up and running, during the install, I gave Solaris a static address but told it to automatically find the gateway. Oops! When solaris 10 installed, it correctly decided that since it had a static IP, it should assign the gateway as itself! So, naturally, when I ran netstat -m, It showed my gateway as myself! 192.168.1.70 sunzilla.
I'm used to running Solaris on a Sparc platform and I'm a bit uncomfortable with reboots and I figured there would surely be a network restart command somewhere. After finding out that things have now changed in Solaris 10 quite a bit from Solaris 8, I just decided to init 6.
After the system came up, everything was happy : -)
So again, thanks to Robert for helping save the day!

ICMP Host Unreachable from gateway localhost (127.0.0.1)

I had a functional zone. But we had an outage and for some reason one of my zones is unreachable. Looks like the problem is that the default route has changed. How can I add a default route to a zone?
Thanks

ifconfig -a will show when you have a duplicated IP address.
It appears along with the text values for the interface flags ie
host-u010|global$ ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index

You would see DUPLICATE or DUPLICATED in that field, and the flags would be different. Sorry, I don't have a duplicate IP situation going on right now, but my memory says it looked something like this:
host-u010|global$ ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index

JTAPI + UDP = ICMP Port Unreachable

Hi,
We're writing an IVR application which register itself as a CTI Route Point. This CTI RP has one line, 2000, which receive the external call (PSTN) from a voice gateway. A customer calls 0800 number, then flows thru PSTN->E1->Gateway->CallManager (2000)->CTI RP.
JTAPI triggers an incoming call event (TermConnRingingEv), I answer this call (terminalConnection.answer()), I receive a TermEv event (CiscoRTPOutputStartedEv), get remote address and port by rtpOutStarted.getRTPOutputProperties() (getRemoteAddress and getRemotePort properties) and start sending RTP audio (CiscoRTPPayload.G711ULAW64K, 160).
Here begins my problems. Testing this scenario with internal calls only, it was 100% perfect! But using external calls (E1->gateway), all the time getRemoteAddress answers the same IP Address (of course, gateway address). But each time there's a different port, one for each call. Usually we have success and the audio comes to final destination: the mobile phone on PSTN; but sometimes the DatagramSocket.send(DatagramPacket) method throws exception "ICMP Port Unreachable" and the call remains active but mute.
There's no pattern for this problem, sometimes it works, sometimes doesn't.
Our CUCM version is 7.1, there's no Unity or IPCC on environment, just CallManager, Gateway and application.
StackTrace:
java.net.PortUnreachableException: ICMP Port Unreachable
at java.net.PlainDatagramSocketImpl.send(Native Method)
at java.net.DatagramSocket.send(DatagramSocket.java:612)
Thanx!

It means there is no UDP connectivity between whatever host gets the exception and whatever host that socket is connected to. Typically a firewall problem.
The addresses of 0.0.0.0 just mean that the socket is bound to all interfaces, it's not a problem.

ICMP Port Unreachable

Can someone clarify what the exception java.net.PortUnreachableException: ICMP Port Unreachable indicates (aside from the obvious)? Here is the scenario: using UDP I have a client application, a gateway application, and a server application. The client sends to the server through the gateway and vice versa. I have created 2 sockets, one between the client and the gateway and one between the gateway and the server. When I try to send from the gateway to the client the packet never makes it to the client (server side is fine). When I call sock.getLocalSocketAddress and sock.getRemoteSocketAddress both are 0.0.0.0 (the latter at least has the right port number). The gateway acts as a server for the client and as a client to the server. I tried to fix this using sock.connect on the gateway side for the client facing socket but this eventually generates the ICMP port unreachable exception on the gateway side when receiving from the client.
Thank you in advance.

Can PIX 506e return port unreachable

Hello
Can PIX 506e return ICMP port unreachable on Linux traceroute with UDP data gram, and if somebody knows how, can you make an example of the access-list how it should be written to allow this response?

PIX won't return an ICMP port unreachable message and access lists cannot be configured to make PIX to respond a port unreachable.

SIP/JSR180: Register Response lost as host throw ICMP message: Port Unreach

Hi All,
I am trying to create a VoIP application using JSR 180 for mobile device using Java Wireless toolkit.
My VoIP application is trying to register an IMS core network.
I am using J2ME emulator to develop/test the application.
My application is correctly sending REGISTER request to IMS core and wireshark shows that IMS core sends correct 200 OK for REGISTER request.
My application is sending the REGISTER request from a dynamically selected port (eg. 3456) to 5060 to my proxy and the response 200 OK is coming to the same port, but my host system throws ICMP message quoting "Port Unreachable".
I guess, the UDP port (3654), is closed as soon as the REGISTER request is sent to network from J2ME enviroment.
Is there any need for some special setting/configuration so that the port is not closed.
Please help.
Regards,
Shiv

Sorry I have the lines:
sipConnection.initRequest("REGISTER", sipNotifier);
and not
sipConnection.initRequest("REGISTER", null);
in my code....the code in the previous post has that error but also with sipNotifier it doesn't work due the same problem.

I need lots of USB ports with New Mac Pro, now what?

because I'm in the audio business I needs lot of USB ports with my Mac Pro. On my current 2008 machine, that's not really an issue, with 5 ports on teh MP itself and I installed some USB hubs over PCIe that give me a total of 13 port. I'm not really sure what is the best way to get that amount on the new MP.
Oh, and I really like the stability of my current set up. Before I went with an external USB Hub that always gave me headaches with ports not being recognized.

The only two things I found so far are:
a/ going back to the external USB hubs, which I find very frustrating to work with, because instable with connection and I would need to add some interface to go from USB to TB (which are also rather expensive at the moment)
b/ use some external PCIe enclosures that are really expensive.
So I havent really found the right solution for my situation. Which makes me hesitant to migrate to new MP at the moment.

QM-SD: Sales Return Inspection lot status Error

Hello Expert,
I want to post Goods receipt in a Returns delivery with QM activated in the material but the following message is displayed:
Status of inspection lot 060000000001 / partial lot 000000 does not allow good issue
Message no. VL171
The inspection type is 06 (Inspection for Returns from Customer).
The movement type is the 651.
I thought that the inspection lot was created when you post the Good receipt, not when you create the delivery, and the stock material would be Qual. Inspection. So, then I should run QA11 click on Accepted in the UD to transfer the stock to Unrestricted use.
Summarizing, the inspection lot is being created when I create the delivery. I can post GR only after running QA11. But then another inspection lot is created and the stock is posted in Returns. I think that the standard should not work like this.
Please let me know what could be the reason for the error for goods issue for sales return?
Thanks in advance.

Sales Return Inspection lot status Error

Dear Nunez
1) 06 inspection lot gets created when you create a delivery not when you do the GR.
2) for 651 movement type only 06 inspection lot will be created and this lot will not be stock specefic. You cannot do stock posting for this lot
3) if you need an inspection lot while doing the GR of the delivery then kindly do the following
1) make use of movement type 653 instead of 651
2) activate 05 inspection in the material master. (deactivate 06)
3) for delivery type LR ( the delivery type you are using for the return ) maintain 05 inspection type in the config
SPRO > QM> Quality Inspection> Inspection Lot Creation>Inspection at Shipping>Assign Inspection Lot Origin to Delivery Type>LR 05inspection type.
Now create the return sales order and then do PGR. inspection 05 will be created. you can do the stock posting in this lot

How to have in GR Returns: Triggered Lot Stock Relevant,Stock non valuated

Hi ,
For every cusotmer return -the lots-having Stock with it. So lot should be Stock related.But Stock should be unvaluated.
So that once our quality dept. do usage decision , the Usage decision post this QI stock to unrestricted or for reject on other categories.
What all will need to mkae it happen this - Stock related Inspection lot .
Thanks a bunch
Rgds,

I presume that your are talking about the customer returns then :
As you know Inspection type 06 is not stock relevant. You must change and use inspecttion type 05 instead.
Deactivate 06 inspection type in the material master
Activate 05 Inspection type in material mster

Can ACE 4710 send ICMP-dest-unreachable?

Dear Community!
We have previously configured an ACE context for implementing redundant corporate DNS service and now testing a transparent ACE context and HA configuration.One virtual-IP is configured for UDP/53, listening for DNS requests. Behind the VIP, there are 3 DNS server. The next step of our testing process, we have shut down all real-server instance behind the virtual-IP while inspecting DNS clients behaviour. Besides the DNS clients requesting the virtual-IP DNS service need ICMP-destination-unreachable packet to switchover the secondary DNS server.
Can ACE 4710 send ICMP-dest-unreachable?
Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately the 4710 does not send icmp unreachable when a vserver is down.
If you have backup dns service, you can configure it on ace itself.

Udp client: destination port unreachable question

Hello,
I used "trivial" UDPClient / Server example to send datagrams from one local interface (eth1) on my Linux box to Datagram server on yhe host not included into local routing table and I tried to capture outgoing udp traffic on interface eth1. I've got IOException
"ICMP: destination unreachable" and I only could capture outgoing
packets on loopback interface ( with Ethereal). Can someone help to
resolve my confusion: I thought UDP is "connectionless", e.g. will be
sent regardless. What does ICMP have to do with it and why does this
traffic appear on loopback interface?
Thank you,

If you are using a specific destination it still has to route.

Ping return a lot of "ICMP Port Unreachable from gateway"
