treos33 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) After upgrading to 6.8.0 my server was unreachable on the webUI. I was able to connect to the CLI and noticed that the IP address was set to 169.254.234.11. I've gathered that this is an Automatic Private IP. I was able to connect to the webUI at this address and I saw on the network settings that the default gateway was set to "link". I was able to change the network settings to use a static IP and manually define the gateway and DNS server. This seems to be working fine at the moment but I want to understand why this happened. I'm not sure if it matters but my mobo has two ethernet ports and I have them configured in a bond. I didn't try removing the bond but this configuration was working perfectly in 6.7.2 for months. Lastly, I have a few different VLANS configured. When I assigned the static IP to my main interface, the IP of my first VLAN was then set to 169.254.234.11. I set all my vlans to static IPs and they're working fine now too. tower-diagnostics-20191215-1943.zip I've attached my diagnostics from before I started assigning static IPs. Let me know if there are any other details that would be helpful. Thanks in advance! Edited December 16, 2019 by treos33 Quote Link to comment
treos33 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 Just wanted to say there seems to be another similar case here: I'm still hoping to get some help with this. I'd prefer to use DHCP and let me router assign IP addresses if possible. Thanks Quote Link to comment
bonienl Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Your bond interface isn't working properly. Does your switch support LACP? Try to change the bond type to "Main - Backup". Quote Link to comment
treos33 Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 My switch does support LACP. This exact configuration was working perfectly for months on 6.7.2. 1 Quote Link to comment
gberg Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I remember I had some DHCP issues a while back, then I disabled and then re-enabled bonding, and the issue seemed to be gone since I did that. Quote Link to comment

Ok, thanks. I'll try this after work today. Quote Link to comment
treos33 Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 Another similar issue: This case and the one I found previously are both using Supermicro motherboards as well. Quote Link to comment

DHCP not working in console mode, but ok in GUI mode??? Edited December 20, 2019 by coolspot Quote Link to comment
treos33 Posted December 28, 2019 Author Share Posted December 28, 2019 Disabling bonding made no difference for me. I still couldn't get an IP address from DHCP with only one ethernet adapter configured. Reverting back to 6.7.2 fixed the issue completely. I did not try booting into GUI mode before reverting to 6.7.2. Quote Link to comment
treos33 Posted January 9, 2020 Author Share Posted January 9, 2020 Still hoping to get some help with this issue. I realize this was originally posted during the holiday madness so hopefully I can get a few more eyes on the issue now. Again, I can't get an IP address when I upgrade to 6.8.0. I have no issues on 6.7.2. I have linked to some other issues above that seem to be very similar to mine. Quote Link to comment
coolspot Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I just upgraded 6.8.2 and it looks like it broke my networking entirely ... I can no longer get an IP address even in GUI mode. Quote Link to comment

twg Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 I had a similar problem trying to upgrade to 6.8.1, I only have 1 network interface so no bonding or anything. I reverted back and just recently tried 6.8.3 and still not working. I had to set my network to static in order for it to work. Quote Link to comment
