Hi All, just wondering if anyone has had the same issues as me with the ACE lab - this is namely, I cannot test it, as I am unable to ssh into the Apache web servers from the 3750 to change their default gateway.
In the lab, the instructions given are this:
From the 3750, perform the following to change the default gateway on each Linux apache server:
ssh -l root 10.0.110.1
Cciedc01
(password)route delete default
route add default gw 10.0.110.10
route
(just to confirm)exit
However, when I do that from the 3750, I get the following:
3750G-1#ssh -l root 10.0.110.1
Destination unreachable; gateway or host down
Okay, so it must be a L2 switch (or L3 but not configured).
Also, in the lab, it talks about the Apache web servers being in VLAN 110, and part of the lab is to ensure that VLAN 110 is trunked to the 3750 (this is after all the server vlan for the ACE load balancing).
BUT, when we so a 'sh int status' on the 3750, the G1/0/1 port, on which the Apache VMs are connected are in VLAN1:
Port Name Status Vlan Duplex Speed Type
Gi1/0/1 To Apache VMs connected 1 a-full a-1000 10/100/1000BaseTX
Gi1/0/2 To ACE4710 Gig1/2 notconnect 1 auto auto 10/100/1000BaseTX
Gi1/0/3 To ACE4710 Gig1/3 connected trunk a-full a-1000 10/100/1000BaseTX
Gi1/0/4 To ACE4710 Gig1/4 connected trunk a-full a-1000 10/100/1000BaseTX
Gi1/0/5 To N5K1 E1/14 notconnect 1 auto auto 10/100/1000BaseTX
Gi1/0/6 To N5K3 E1/14 notconnect 1 auto auto 10/100/1000BaseTX
Gi1/0/7 To N5K5 E1/14 notconnect 1 auto auto 10/100/1000BaseTX
Gi1/0/8 To N5K7 E1/14 connected trunk a-full a-1000 10/100/1000BaseTX
I have tried most things I can think of, including creating a vlan 110 SVI, and putting g1/0/1 into vlan 110 as an access port, but still I cannot connect to the Linux machines to change their default gateway.
This is a key part of the lab, because if I can't change the DG of the Linux servers, then I have absolutely no hope of being able to test the lab, even if all my ACE config is correct.
Am I being really dumb and missing something stupid?
It seems the lab is incomplete in terms of instruction - at the very least, I'm not sure how, without any SVI on the 3750 I can ssh into the servers?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Dominic
