Antsle Won't Get DHCP Address When IP Changed
by des_a from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6GJJD)
I'm going to be gone all day tommorrow, and most of the day Thursday, due to Thanksgiving, so I may not be able to look at this or troubleshoot until after that. OK. I have an anstle. I'm thinking later of installing proxmox on it, and abandining the antsle software. However, I have not done that yet. My servers need updated severely, however, there is a process I have to go through to be able to update them.
The process for being able to update the servers, includes, cleaning my apartment, posting the videos I want to make to youtube, and getting standard scripts to work (see my other thread for that). Now I've run into an issue when getting my servers back up and running, which work for now.
When redoing the machine where mainrouter used to sit (a router), and replacing it with another, I had to use different static reservations. This was due to my now having APs, instead of just routers. Now, I can't pull an address (a static reservation) from DHCP for some reason, though I think I saw my PIMI BIOS thingy work from this port. I know the cable is good, because it worked in a different port. The light is on (data link light), on the port in the antsle. I still can't be sure if the port is good, maybe it's getting not enough power or something. Please include a link to a cheap tester for someone, if you can. Something like on amazon or aliexpress or temu. Probably on one of those stores.
I have 4 ports on the antsle, and have only been using the one, so it is possible that I could just only use a different port. However, I'd have to reconfigure all the VMs. So I don't want to do that, unless I have to. I'm assuming this is a software problem, but it could, as mentioned, be a hardware problem unbenknownst to me. I had to choose where to put it, so I'm putting my thread here. I guess I could have put it under general, but I'm thinking it belongs here better. Antsle is proprietory, however, when purchasing it in the first place, I didn't know about proxmox.
