System looses communication after any network settings changed.


Recommended Posts

What happens: This is not limited to this install of UnRAID or this version of UnRAID. If I change any network information other than turning off the default bonding and bridging configuration it loses all network communications.

With the SFP+ card in the system mac becomes that of all network links. There is red text saying " Not Configured "

 

Some info: It has the motherboard ethernet that works. And a Mellanox Connectx-3 that does not work when the motherboard internet is unplugged.

 

What I've tried: Booting with the Mellanox Connectx-3 connected and the motherboard disconnected, hoping that it would pull an IP (it  didn't).

I tried manually specifying what the IP address should be and other settings (it stopped communicating).

I tried a lot of arps and pings and other ways to get into it but to no avail.

 

Solution: In the terminal find out the status of your NICs. If the desired one is down, type the following.

 

ip link

ip link set eth1 up

dhcpcd eth1

 

Replace 'eth1' with whatever your desired NIC is called.

Found the solution so I appended it again
