Hi
I have to use static IP, and have set up static IP for my freeNAS server successfully. But I am not able to successfully set a STATIC IP for my plex jail, while in a VNET, and still be able to connect to it.
1. I am able to set DHCP Autoconfigure IPv4, VNET, and Berkely Packet Filter (basically default settings), and get it to work successfully that way, but then I am stuck with non-static IP, which I dont want.
2. I am also able to set a static IP, and DISABLE DHCP Autoconfigure, VNET, and Berkeley Packet Filter. This works, and I am able to connect to plex using my new IP.
BUT, if I use solution 2, something weird happens. My local IP for freeNAS is: 192.168.10.69. My chosen IP for plex jail is 192.168.10.79. When I activate this Jail, I can suddendly access my freenas server, by typing in 192.168.10.79 in a web browser. Plex altso works via 192.168.10.79:32400. Also, the network page on the Dashboard changes to "IP Adress 192.168.10.79", and "Aliases 192.168.10.79" when I activate the jail. Upon deactivation, it returns to its normal 192.168.10.69.
Also, when doing this, my server is STILL available on 192.168.10.69.
If I try to activate VNET for the jail, AND Static IP (which is what Im trying to do), I am not able to configure it correctly. I am not able to get it working. I assume I am doing something wrong, but I am not able to solve it, using the freenas Guide. Trust me, I have tried. If I have missed something, please point me to the correct page, not just link to the guide itsef.
What I have done (unsuccessfully):
Plex jail settings:
Basic Properties:
DHCP Autoconfigure IPv4: OFF
VNET: ON
Berkeley Packet FIlter: ON
IPv4 Interface: ix1 (same as freenas itself)
IPv4 Adress: 192.168.10.79
IPv4 Netmask: 24 (same as freenas itself)
IPv4 Default Router: 192.168.10.1 (same as freenas itself, not sure if Im supposed to set this when Im using vnet)
Autoconfigure IPv6: OFF
Everything else under IPv6 is blank, or "none"
Auto-start ON
Network Properties:
interfaces: vnet0:bridge0
host_domainname: none
host_hostname: plex-plexpass
exec_fib: 0
ip4_saddrsel: ON
ip4: inherit
ip6_saddrsel: ON
ip6: inherit
resolver: /etc/resolv.conf
mac_prefix: (blank)
vnet_default_interface: ix1 (same as freenas)
vnet0_mac: 306377XXXXXX 306377XXXXXX (partly replaced with X's to hide full address)
vnet1_mac: none
vnet2_mac: none
vnet3_mac: none
Does anyone spot anything immediately wrong with this setup?
