  • 1.  The WAN Uplink IP address cannot be pingged

    Posted Mar 15, 2022 10:36 AM
    Hi, 
    I have configured VLAN 4094 for the uplink port (G0/0/3) and after ztp I changed the IP assignment from DHCP to static and added the IP address and subnet for the uplink. before this, however, I configured the default gateway address under static default gateway in the routing section. I can ping any address on the internet but from the internet, I cannot ping the uplink IP address. I checked WLAN policies and ICMP is allowed by default (sys-sv-icmp permitted from any source address).

    Do you have any idea how to fix this issue?

    if you are referring to Aruba branch gateways, there is a DNAT on the INET facing uplinks
    so generally you should not be able to ping the Internet IP address of a branch gateway unless you specifically allow it.

    Hi, 
    Thank you for your reply, actually, it is about VPNC uplink. for the  WAN uplink, I am using the same  IP (public) as private (configure for VLAN 4094) and the public as well, but still cannot ping it. Or probably I  should configure a private address and then configure a 1:1NAT translation on the gateway itself (Interface-> Pool Management->Static 1:1NAT)?

    is there a Firewall in front of the VPNC that is Internet facing?

    no, it is directly connected to the internet, no devices in between.

    then i suggest to have an internal RFC1918 IP address for another interface and then do a 1:1 static NAT

    so, do I need to change the VLAN 4094 IP address from the public to an RFC1918 IP address and then do a 1:1 static NAT? Or do you know any instructions on how to do it?

    I changed the VLAN 4094 IP address from the public to an RFC1918 IP address (10.10.10.10)  and then did a 1:1 static NAT. But it didn't work. Using the command line I can see that WAN port 3 is up, but in the device overview, it looks to be down.
