VM100 Base config CLI only

L1 Bithead

HI all,

 

Hope i can find someone amazing out there.

We have a VM100 that can only be configured from CLI as the provider that does not support any way to access a VM or webUI

I spent 4 hours on the phone with Palo Alto support and they could not help me.

Quick Break down.

simple /30 link using vlan 948

Palo Alto ip 172.20.0.82 

MPLS ip 172.20.0.81

Hi @RobC-AU ,

 

I have no idea what you've tested with support but I'll go for some of the obvious :

 

How are you pinging ? Are you pinging from the correct source IP or from your management IP and is a security policy required to allow the ping ?

Do you see your ping egressing the correct interface ? Does the ping arrive at the destination ?

Do you see specific global counters rising that could explain why it's failing ?

 

Cheers,

Hi Kiwi,

Thanks for your reply.

I tried pining from the conencted interface EG:

Ping source 172.20.0.82 host 172.20.0.81

 

That way no default interzone transfer rules will block the traffic.

If i do a show coutners i do get Total counter increasing

show counter global filter delta yes

From the managment interface

ping source 10.120.100.254 host 172.20.0.81

I get no counter increase from managment interface.

 

As for seeing pings at  the other side that is inside the Service providers network and they said they cant tell me what traffic is arrive but they can see traffic increasing when i ping.

 

Currently i have not configured any secuirty policys other then the 3 managment policys.

 

Any help would be great most the time Palo Alto support knock this kinda of stuff out of the park. 

Does the provider block icmp on their device?
Does the provider see an arp entry for your device? If so, does it match the MPLS facing mac address?
Are you connected to the PA via some virtual console or direct SSH? If you're on a console, can you ping 10.120.100.1 from the management interface?

Connecting via a virtual console. And not a great one no copy and paste functions 😞

 

From inside the MPLS network i can ping 172.20.0.81 IP address.

but unable to ping 172.20.0.82

I have configured the network port as a managment port. so i wont be using the gateway of the managment interface.

I made sure that i have a management profile attached to the interface to allow ping and so on.

I have tried tagged and untagged interfaces on the correct vlans. 😞

Worked it out,

 

set system setting dpdk-pkt-io off

 

then reboot

All working now

Thank you all so much for your help
