FW 6.2.0.1-15664 NAT option greyed out

  • 1.  FW 6.2.0.1-15664 NAT option greyed out

    Posted Apr 09, 2014 03:16 AM

    Ever since upgrading to FW 6.2.0.1-15664 on our MSM765zl controllers the NAT option on the interface context is greyed out.

    Now this is the ultimate show stopper and - sorry for the profanity - a super pain in the ass.

     

    Check the attachment for a screenshot.

     

    I can download the configuration, change the 

    nat = 

     
    part in the 

    <INTERFACE-VLAN-*>

     context and re-upload the file, but this if course causes a controller reboot.

     

    So ... any ideas on how to get that radio button enabled again?

     

    The release notes for 6.2.0.1 state that

     

    If the MSM7xx Controller is configured with the NAT feature enabled (default setting) and with the
    Extend VSC egress subnet to VSC ingress subnet feature enabled (disabled by default), the v6.2.0.0
    software will disable the NAT feature. It is recommended that you review your existing settings and
    disable one of these features before upgrading to v6.2.0.0.

     But I'm not using the DHCP relay agent, so I can't even uncheck the "Extend VSC egress subnet to VSC ingress subnet" setting, which is greyed out, too, by the way.

     

    EDIT:

    The NAT option can be set via the CLI (VLAN interface context) though.

     

    Just in case someone else encounters this problem, on the CLI syntax to enable NATing on a L3 interface on the internet (what a stupid name) L2 interface is:

     

    enable
        config
            interface ethernet port-2
                interface vlan "vlan name"
                    ip nat
                    end
            end
        end
    quit
