[SOLVED] Unraid (6.8.3) no longer able to grab IP from DHCP

Featured Replies

[Solved] Unfortunately I tried many many things and don't know what specifically brought it back online but all good now.

 

Yesterday we had an internet outage (not actually sure what went wrong but basically unplugged and replugged everything and it started working again) and for whatever reason every device in my home is back online just fine except for the unraid box which keeps pulling a 169.254.x.x IP which, from my research so far, seems to indicate it failed to get a proper DHCP lease. In addition to not being a correct IP from my DHCP server I also can't connect to this IP from another machine via the web UI.

 

My router is a pfsense box which allocates 192.168.125.100 through 192.168.125.254 for dynamic leases and I also have a static IP outside of this range (192.168.125.10) configured for the Unraid box which it can't seem to grab.

 

Also to be clear this configuration was working fine until the outage yesterday. Also every other device in my network is grabbing IPs within range and have internet access no problem.

 

Things I have tried:

  1. Restarting unraid
  2. Restarting pfsense
  3. Using a different network cable from the unraid box to my switch
  4. Using a different port on the switch (Note: all other ports are in use and all devices besides Unraid pull IPs just fine)
  5. Deleting the static IP configuration in pfsense
  6. Re-adding the static IP configuration in pfsense
  7. Deleting the network config file on my unraid boot drive

 

I have grabbed the diagnostics and attached them here in case anyone has any ideas. I don't have a ton of experience looking through these logs but this seems to be relevant:

Anyone have ideas on what could be going wrong or things to try?
