[SOLVED] netctl DHCP IP (client) and Static IP on a single interface

Description="enp1s0"
Interface=enp1s0
Connection=ethernet
IP=dhcp
DNS=('127.0.0.1')
I have a server I have configured as a NATed router. enp1s0 is assigned a public ip via my modem, but I also want to add a 192.168.100.0/24 address so I can configure the modem. I read the netctl.profile manual, but didn't see a way to configure it this way.
Would adding this be the proper way to do this?
IPCustom=('ip address add 192.168.100.2/24 dev enp1s0')
Thank You For Your Time

If I understand, you have a system that is being used as a router; presumably this means there are at least two Ethernet interfaces. The one(s) that face your private network are not relevant to this issue.
The interface that faces the internet receives a public IP as apposed to a private address like 192.168.x.x. In this case, the address is not being provided by the modem. It is being provided by your ISP, and the modem is in Bridge mode. If this is the case, I do not believe you can communicate with the modem. In bridge mode, it acts as a dumb pass through.
Other modems handle the communication with the ISP and obtain a public IP for themselves, and then provide NAT to a private network behind the modem. If this is the case, the address your Arch server gets will really be a 192.168.x.x (or 172.x.x.x, or 10.x.x.x) address. In this case, you can talk to the web server in the modem, but you should not need a static address. The modem should provide a dynamic address on its private network side, regardless as to whether it has established an upstream connection.
Can you verify what the IP assigned to your Box is? You do not need to share it, just provide the first octet.

[SOLVED] netctl-auto not working, and I cannot remove netctl instance

Hi, I installed Arch a few days ago, netctl-auto was working yesterday but today it's not.
Note that
netctl start
works: I have a problem with netctl-auto only.
$ ping -c 3 8.8.8.8
connect: Network in unreachable
I have created only one netctl profile so far, it's called wlp4s0-VM581389-2G (wlp4s0 is the name of my wireless interface)
$ ls /etc/netctl
examples hooks interfaces wlp4s0-VM581389-2G
$ netctl list
wlp4s0-VM581389-2G
wpa_actiond is installed, and I have done
systemctl enable [email protected]
But for some reason I have some extra netctl@ instances that shouldn't be there. I am wondering if they could be the cause of netctl-auto not working properly:
$ systemctl | grep netctl
[email protected] loaded active running Automatic wireless network connection using netctl profiles
● netctl@my\x2dnetwork.service loaded failed failed Networking for netctl profile my-network
● netctl@wlp4s0\x2dVM581389\x2d2G.service loaded failed failed Networking for netctl profile wlp4s0-VM581389-2G
system-netctl.slice loaded active active system-netctl.slice
system-netctl\x2dauto.slice loaded active active system-netctl\x2dauto.slice
- What are these bullet points at the beginning of these two lines?
- Where do netctl@my\x2dnetwork.service and netctl@wlp4s0\x2dVM581389\x2d2G.service come from? They might be instances that I had enabled in the past.
These instances are not enabled and they are inactive, but they are loaded!
$ systemctl is-enabled netctl@my\x2dnetwork.service

I have tried to get rid of them, but not managed:

$ systemctl disable netctl@my\x2dnetwork.service
$ systemctl | grep netctl

system-netctl\x2dauto.slice loaded active active system-netctl\x2dauto.slice
Also, I have tried to check with
netctl-auto list
, which gives an empty output. I am guessing that it's normal, because the netctl-auto instances are managed by systemd?
Now, trying to understand what is happening to [email protected]: as seen before with systemctl | grep netctl, it is active and running.
Then I do:
$ journalctl -u [email protected]

So, a wpa_actiond session was started, but I still cannot ping 8.8.8.8. Why?
Investigating further:

What does this mean? Which file might have been left by an unclean termination? I tried to find this info in the wpa_supplicant documentation, and by searching on Google, but couldn't find anything.
Now I am lost:
- how do I get rid of these two undesired netctl instances?
- where can I investigate next, to get netctl-auto@wlp4s0 to work?
Any help greatly appreciated :-)

What is the output of:
ls -l /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants
netctl-auto cannot be used with explicitly enabled profiles (ie, those for which you have used `netctl enable <profile>`).

DHCP - UDP 67 and 68 Multiple Occurrences From Single Host

Hello Forum. On our core switches I've captured clients using port 68 destined to a broadcast address 255.255.255.255 on port 67 throughout the day. Within a hour period some stationary Windows 7 clients can be found doing this at least 4 times.
So, what can be causing a client to have this behavior throughout the day? Is there a setting I should change on the client or on the DHCP server? Thanks.

Hello Sandeep, in this case the ip request would be recieved from the same voice interface on which the ip helper-address was assigned.
By using the ip helper-address command, a router can be configured to accept a broadcast request for a UDP service and then forward it as a unicast to a specific IP address

Where is your DHCP server configured (swtich, firewall, 3rd party server..etc)?
Does it work correctly if the AP IP on same subnet and ip-helper is not being utilized?

Mixing static and dynamic content in a single outputText value causes NPEs

Hi,
I am having a problem and I'm wondering if it is a result of my error or if this is a bug.
I am mixing dynamic and static content in the value attribute of tags (e.g., outputText). On initial page load, everything works fine. However, if the same view is reloaded (e.g., after a failed validation) I get an NPE from JSF:

          /><h:outputText escape="false" value='" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />' />So is the problem that I am mixing dynamic and static content with a single value? If so, why does it work on the first view, and not after?
If it matters, I'm using the reference implementation version 1.1 (as included with NetBeans 5.5RC2) on SuSE 10.0 w/ JDK 1.5_09.
Thanks,
Bill

Yes, that's how I originally had it, but then changed it to the outputText approach since a single tag could do what I wanted, as long as I was allowed to mix static and dynamic content within a single value.
I think this is a bug in JSF 1.1, since if what I am doing is illegal, it should throw an exception on the first page view, not work on first view and throw an exception on subsequent views. I'm guessing that this has something to do with the fact that on first page view it only runs the restore view and render response JSF phases, while on subsequent requests all of the phases will be run, and it's in one of those other phases that the exception is thrown.
For now, multiple tags is the work-around, I guess.
Thanks,
Bill

DHCP Lease process with static clients

Hi ,
I have a question regarding DHCP .
Let us assume that DHCP server has been configured with ip address pool, say for ex: 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.2.254.
Now assume that in the LAN network we have 3 clients which have got the DHCP addresses from the above pool say from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.4.
Now I will add one more client with static ip address from the above pool say IP: 192.168.1.5.
Now if I add one more DHCP client, in the above LAN network, will the DHCP server come to know that there is already static client with IP address 192.168.1.5 is exist? and for the newly added client, will it give the same static ip address 192.168.1.5 or will give the next available IP address?
Basically I want to understand that whether DHCP server will have idea of static clients?

Hi,
you can do this creating more than one dhcp server on your router, and you can provide the IP address from the different dhcp servers through assigning ip address from the blog to the specific interface in the router.
regarding the static IP address that have been assigned to a host in your network, the dhcp try to lease the same IP address to another hosts in the network, but once it detected that this IP address is conflected the dhcp server remove this IP address and assign the next IP to the host.
please let me know if this is not cleare.
regards,

DHCP client and manual hostname ?

If i use my solaris8 system using dhcp i get the hostname "unknown". Thats seems to be normal.
Is it possible to be a solaris8 dhcp-client AND use a manual-entered hostname, NOT one wich is given by the DHCP server ?
thanks.

If you configure the system as DHCP client, then when the system
comes up it will ask for the host/ip information from the
DHCP server, and may overwrite the manually entered hostname.
This is something you will have to try out.
Thx

I have a WRT54GS ver2...older model. Some models have DHCP Reservation that allows the same IP to be reestablished with the connected wireless device. This model does not have that....wish it did. I need to get the same IP with my Denon AVR (audo video receiver) each time.
Ok, So my 54GS is setup for DHCP 192.168.1.100 with 7 connections. Only using 5 of these.
If I set an IP in my Denon AVR with a static IP of 192.168.110 (outside the .100 to .106 range) and the Gateway is the IP of the 54GS, Sub, DNS1, 2 as for my TCP/IP connection....then I should be able to connect to the router and dsl modem......I am unable to get the Denon to connect?
The Denon is connected via a wirless bridge..Buffalo Ethernet Converter that uses DHCP to connect to the 54GS. Does that mean I can't use a static IP in the Denon that connects hardwire to the Buffalo?
How to get the Denon to see the router?

The puzzle continues.........
I have the Router Gateway IP set at: 192.168.100.100
The DHCP server in the router is setting: 192.168.100.101-.103
I have the Denon IP set: 192.168.100.121.... will not connect to the Internet...does connect to the network.
I have a DirecTV IP set: 192.168.100.120......connects to the Internet and network.
Why the Denon will not connect to the Internet is the puzzle, especially since the DirecTV is connected via the same bridge and using the same IP setup as the Denon. I tried UPnP on/off...no difference.
The Denon and DirecTV are both connected to a Buffalo Air Station (wireless Ethernet Converter). Same ports, connections as with DHCP in use and working.
The DirecTV IP is set at 192.168.100.120; the Denon 192.168.100.121.
Gateway IP, Subnet Mask, DNS, all set the same in both. All other sources use DHCP in the .101-.103 range.
DirecTV connects to Internet....Denon NO.
Both work when using DHCP via the router just fine. Just wanted a static non-changing IP in the Denon for use with FW updates/issues.
Stumped!

SMB issue 10.4 client and 10.5 server solved?

I searched for days to solve the problem to connect via SMB from a 10.4 client on shared files on 10.5 server. But I did not find any answer except unable guest access (what is no real solution).
Why this error code -36 appears when trying to connect from the client (because encrypted password IS enabled)?
Why SMB still works using 10.5 clients and Windows PC's?
Why SMB works when guest access is unabled, but connected with defined accounts?
Does anybody can answer this questions?
Best regards,
Tom
Settings:
10.5.3 Server version
virtual LAN environment
mixed network (Mac, Windows)

I had a similar issue and I was able to make things a bit better by letting all users have access to SMB under the server access settings. You can still limit who has access to each individual share. I still have some other odd issues but I can at least connect.

WLC2100 not issuing DHCP to clients

I've got a 2106 that I'm installing for a customer and having issues with it assigning DHCP to WiFI clients. What's odd is that this was working at one point at home during testing. Only difference at this point is LAN hardware at the customer location.
Simple config- single flat vlan on Cat2960G switch, ASA5505 serving up DHCP for the network. Wired clients are receiving DHCP fine.

I've run dhcpd debug on both the controller and the ASA and I see the DHCPD requests on the controller, but I never see them hitting the ASA.
I don't have the specific version of code it's running, but I know it's 6.0. One of my local Cisco account engineers found some Cisco CSC bugs referencing this issue. One TAC cas even referenced stripping all security off the WiFi, connecting the client and then reimplementing the security again.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm hoping to head back over there again this afternoon to do some more troubleshooting and hopefully solve this for them.
Thanks!
Mike

In this case, the controller is not currently configured as DHCP server, although I may be trying that this afternoon.
I've currently got DHCP proxy enabled and am pointing it to the ASA5505 (192.168.0.1)- I thought I mentioned that in my previous post.
Please keep in mind this was working fine at one point in my lab while I was testing it, then I shut it down for a couple weeks while I waited to install it at the customer site. I've even tried resetting back to factory defaults and reconfiguring it to see if I'd accidentally misconfigured something.
I don't have the exact version, but I do know that I'm running a 6.x code rev. I'm probably going to just upgrade to 7.0 this afternoon and see if that makes a difference. If not, I'll try enabling the internal DHCP server, but I don't want to do that if I don't need to. Just one more thing to worry about managing for the customer.
Thanks,
Mike

Windows 8.1 client and Windows Server 2003

Hi we have a Server 2003 domain with XP clients. I now have new PC's with Windows 8.1. I made the PC join the domain. I have given the new Windows 8.1 PC the same network settings like the XP-one it replaces. I can view all the network drives, I can join
the domain, printing, ... But when I try browsing the internet it doesn't work. I can do a ping to 8.8.8.8 and www.google.com and it answers but when I surf to the internet it won't open any internet page and time-outs. The 2003 domain is one without a dhcp-server
so all static ip's. I have attached this PC to our DHCP-network and set the IP-settings to automatic and it can browse the internet. I have given a XP-pc the same network settings and it can browse the internet. How can I solve this?
Kind regards!

Hi jhousen1,
Please provide more information for better analyzation:
1. What error message do you receive in Internet Explorer?
2. Do we have any proxy settings configured in group policy?
Please Check the proxy settings through Internet Options in Windows 8.1, also take a look at the article below:
What to do when Internet Explorer isn’t working

Port Forwarding and Static IP addresses

Netcomm NB1300 router and Airport Express.
I want to use and old G3 mac running 10.3.9 as a server for HTTP and FTP. The Mac is currently connected via Airport but I can connect it via Ethernet if necessary.
I understand that I will have to activate Port Forwarding on my Router with Ports 21 and 80 to allow external Internet access to the G3. I will also have to configure DHCP Manually for a Static IP address and probably link up with a Free DNS service to maintain reliable access to the G3.
I have other computers on the network, two Macs (Ethernet / 10.3.9 & Airport 10.4.11) and two PC's (one with Vista, one with XP / both on Airport). Only one of the extra Macs is connected via ethernet, the rest are connected via Airport.
Will I have to assign Static IP addresses to all the computers or just the one I want to use as a server?
And also, can anyone tell me about Port Forwarding via Port 22 to give more security from external observation/attacks? I know nothing about this security measure.
Thanks in advance.
Christo.

I am now assuming I will be able to access the 'server' from an external location. Very optimistic! But I can't test that for a couple of days.
Ah, but you've given up too soon! You can access your web server from outside your network real easy: you just need to find an external client you can point back to your site. I like to use the W4C validator to do that. It has the happy side effect of also telling you if your web page markup is valid. So you'd point your browser to the validator page:
http://validator.w3.org/
I like to choose "More Options" and tell it to show the page source. That way I can also verify that it's seeing the page I want it to see.
If I disconnect the iBook from Ethernet, can it still be accessible from an external location if it is connected to the Router via Airport, or do I have do so something like Port Forwarding with my Airport Express as well? Note the iBook can still connect to the Internet via Airport.
It would depend on how your Airport is set up. I think there are a couple of ways to set them up. One is to make the Airport a DHCP server, which would make the wireless network essentially a separate network. In that case, you'd have to forward throught the Airport, too.
My wireless network, though, is set up to bridge, so it's all one network. In that case, all I'd have to do to forward wirelessly to a client would be to set up the forward on the main router.
Being that persons other than myself will be accessing the iBook via FTP, do I give them the user account password of the Mac, or can I set a password in the Router or something else?
Also, when accessing the iBook on my local network using Cyberduck, I can see the entire directory of the iBook's user account. Is there a way to limit access to just one folder, such as the Public folder, or a self-designated folder?
Unfortunately, I don't know anything about setting up FTP. I would suggest that you look into maybe making an account on the iBook specifically for the FTP user and only give out that username and password. You might want to poke around in the Networking and the Web and Unix discussions in the Mac OS X Technologies area. I've seen a number of posts there about setting up FTP, and you might be able to find your answers there.

Why available Lan Host not showing up in the DHCP Leased Client table for RV180

I just purchased the RV180 and am puzzled as to why lan host with ip address of 192.168.1.102 not showing up in the DHCP leased clients list.
I have 4 static ip addresses with the last 3 digits ending in 101, 102,103 and 200 listed in the static DHCP and available local network list, but 102 is not in the DHCP leased clients list. The other 3: 101,103 and 200 are.
Should it not be there also?

Thanks Marty,
There is nothing different about 102 than the other hosts.
I did talk to tech support at Cisco this morning and I was told that I should not use the static DHCP under Networking LAN. Instead, I should set the static IP at the device level.
So under Static DHCP, the list is blank, but the IP address will show up under Available LAN Hosts and listed as Static as Type.
I thought this is a bit strange since it is Static DHCP and should be under Static DHCP (?)

[SOLVED] netctl fails; wpa_supplicant works

Hi,
I ran into something, and managed to get it working, but I'm curious about something that happened in the process.
I couldn't connect to a local home network using netctl (with wifi-menu), but I can connect using wpa_supplicant/dhcpcd and also using a wpa_configsection profile for netctl. I think the /etc/netctl/wlan0-CourseX file is okay (passwords changed below).
wlan0-CourseX profile:
Description='Automatically generated profile by wifi-menu'
Interface=wlan0
Connection=wireless
Security=wpa
ESSID=CourseX
IP=dhcp
Key=Password
When I do "sudo netctl start wlan0-CourseX", I get
Job for netctl@wlan0\x2dCourseX.service failed. See 'systemctl status netctl@wlan0\x2dCourseX.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
which produces

with the file
/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf:
network={
ssid="CourseX"
psk="Password"
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
priority=20
everything works.
Because wpa_supplicant works, I thought netctl might if I use a configsection (looks more like wpa_supplicant file I referenced?) With this file for netctl,
wlan0-CourseX_cnfgsec profile:
Description='A configuration for WPA2 with PEAP'
Interface=wlan0
Connection=wireless
Security=wpa-configsection
IP=dhcp
WPAConfigSection=(
'ssid="CourseX"'
'group=TKIP'
'pairwise=TKIP'
'psk="Password"'
'priority=20'
the connection works fine with "sudo netctl start wlan0-CourseX_cnfgsec".
So, I'm curious why the wifi-menu generated profile wouldn't work, but one with a configsection works fine.
Thanks!

@luisgmarine, I have tried it with and without the single quotes -- no difference. Thanks for the idea though.
@progandy, Interesting. I'm not sure how to figure out if it's an issue with the router communication or not, though.
Anyway, thanks for the ideas and thoughts. I'll mark this as solved, because it is working; I was just curious to see if there was an apparent explanation.
