Trying to add IP to Opt 11

[pbxn]

Have an option 11 that has not been configured to my company's IP scheme. So I have tried to add a new host/route and each time I enter the info I get the following code.
SCH6579 Config: Update "1xx.x.x.xxx" "x.x.x.x1" failed.

NTP says ConfL error string - configuration error. Not exactly much help there.

Has anyone seen this code, and what is the work around?

Before you go much further, I would caution you to make sure you are putting the PBX either in it's own vlan, or a new subnet that is isolated from the rest of your network - you can control access to the PBX from that point.

One of the fastest ways to crash a PBX is to expose it to your corporate network broadcast traffic.

The IP scheme is set up the same across the company. Each site has its own "split" switch. First 6 ports for company network, last 6 dedicated on a seperated telecom vlan. That part I'm not worried about as it is covered, thanks though.

To configure a new host entry:

Ld 117
new host <host name> <IP address> [<cabinet>]

chg mask <net mask> [<cabinet>]

chg elnk active <host name>

new route <net_addr (usually 0.0.0.0)> <gateway IP> [<cabinet> <port>]

prt rout

(Take note of the ID# for the rout you just created)

enl rout <route ID>

u d

LD 137
dis elnk
enl elnk

Thanks for the post allenmac, I sort of got all of that, done it a time or two, refer to my first post on the error I am getting when trying to add the ip info.

=> new host Prim x.x.xx5.x00 1
SCH6579 Config: Update "PRIM" "10.1.225.100" failed.

=> new host PRIM 10.1.225.100
SCH6579 Config: Update "PRIM" "10.1.225.100" failed.

Do you know what feature set the PBX is running?

I could not find any package dependencies for configuring hosts in LD 117, so If it's not a feature or package problem, I would start to suspect software or database corruption.

 

[pbxn]

I'm leaning in the corruption arena. From what I can see it looks like just the default "nortel" given ip address'.
WHen I try to change, I get that code, when i try to add a new host same thing. Weirdest thing.

 

[WarbleKing]

can you post a "prt host" from ld 117

 

[pbxn]

Sure. As you can see, as soon as I enter ld 117 I get the sch.

SCH6578 File I/O: Can't open file c:/u/db/INET.DB

Here's stat

[allenmac]

It looks like the file c:/u/db/INET.DB is either corrupt or missing.

If you know how to log into the PDT shell, you could look to see if the file exists.

I would report this to my service vendor immediately and have them rectify the situation.

 

[pbxn]

I haven't been comfortable playing in pdt, always leave that to the vendor. Mainly because if something gets really messed up, its on them to fix and not me. Thanks again for the posts.

 

[allenmac]

You're welcome. It's too bad it doesn't look like there's a quick, easy, vendor-free fix for your problem.

Go to ld 143 and Stat or PRT elnk, that will show you what you are using....

You are entering the IP info for CAB 1 according to the command you have posted, unless you have an IP enabled cabinet 1 or gateway, then I would have to assume it's the MAIN cabinet you are trying to change (0 or MAIN) check to verify you are entering that correctly first.
Cabinet 1 is not your main(it's an expansion), it's the first cabinet after your main (0) cabinet....

 

[pbxn]

Triton thanks for the post. But if you look at the two command entries I listed, I tried both cab 1, and on the second chose the "default" main by not entering a number. Tried 0 as well no luck. I try any and all configurations I can before I admit defeat so to speak and submit to my vendor. As you can see below, this switch doesn't have a thing. Still leaning on coruption as I get that sch code right when I enter ld 117 <cr>
Thanks

[Triton101]

Sorry, it's ld 137 to stat ELNK

 

[pbxn]

Stat elnk shows default 135.x.x.x sort of like what you would have with your switch freshly installed.

 

[pbxn]

Oops sorry take that back.
ld 137 shows the same as 143.
I was thinking of something else.
