(6.9.2) Cannot Connect to Server over the Network

Featured Replies

So recently my server has been unable to be reached by anything else on the network. It's been working fine for months, but while doing a recent data rebuild it suddenly lost connectivity. I have both its onboard 1Gb NIC and the 10Gb add-in card set to have static IP's. However when I try to access the web gui the connection times out, and no shares are accessible.

Unraid Version: 6.9.2

1Gb onboard NIC: Intel® i350 (motherboard is a supermicro X9DR3-F)

10Gb NIC: Asus XG-C100C

Things attempted thus far:

1. Swapping cables and ports on the switch - was able to access the webui for about 20 seconds after bootup via the 1gb ip only

2. Changing network setting to ones that I know worked in the past - no effect

3. Attempting to connect with only 1 nic pluged in and the IP's set to automatic - no effect

4. Deleting the network.cfg and network-rules.cfg files and rebooting - same as 1

5. Restarting my router (done multiple times throughout) - no effect

Other Notes:

1. When setting the ip assignment to automatic the 10gb nic will get a normal 192.168 address, however the 1gb onboard will get a 198 self assigned address.

2. This is not the first time something like this has happened, but in the I don't recall how i resolved it the last time. This time the problem arose during the data rebuild process, I doubt that would be part of the problem, but figure i should mention it anyway.

self assigned addresses are 169. Are you sure it had 198?

 

Are you sure your servers static IP is on the same subnet as the rest of your network? I always let everything on my network use DHCP and reserve their IP by MAC address in the router.

 

Do you have an attached keyboard and monitor?

As far as the 169 vs 198, I may have mistyped but also don't remember what the exact number was. Currently both NIC's are set to automatic and been assigned ip on the same subnet as the rest of the devices on the network, 192.168.50.60 and 192.168.50.59 (for the 1Gb and 10Gb respectively). Yes I have an attached keyboard and mouse, currently that's the only way I'm able to make any changes.

Just rebooted the server and both addresses did assign a 169 address.
