Hello, I have been racking my head for a while now and I am thought I would ask the great and almighty Internet for the answers to my problem. The problem is probably so obvious that I cannot see it, but maybe you can. I have created a new TrueNAS 12.0-U8 system on bare metal. The OS is running great and I have no problems accessing the NAS via SSH, SMB, and NFS. The Plugin for Plex and Plex beta fail to install no matter how many times I try... but that is neither here no there because I have a Plex Pass so I know I will have to manually install the application anyways.
I followed the instructions to install Plex manually from here. I cannot get past the section "Access Web Interface" because my desktop cannot reach the Plex web interface. I have tried from numerous Windows systems on this very flat LAN without any security or VLANS... and yet the browsers just timeout without any response from the Plex server.
I can ping hosts on the LAN, I can reach the gateway router, I can resolve hostnames, I can also reach the Internet. I can do everything EXCEPT reach the Plex interface from my desktop.
To troubleshoot the problem I have tried every combination of creating 3 different jails with all the different combinations of:
RELEASE
12.3-RELEASE-p5 (current)
12.0-RELEASE-p13 (attempted)
11.4-RELEAE-p13 (attempted)
BASIC PROPERTIES
DHCP (attempted)
NAT (attempted)
VNET (current)
This is my CURRENT typology:
192.168.0.1 <-- Default Gateway
192.168.1.100/16 <-- igb0 <-- TrueNAS
192.168.1.101/16 <-- igb0:bridge0 <-- Plex Jail
This are my CURRENT jail settings:
(unchecked) DHCP Autoconfigure IPv4
(unchecked) NAT
(checked) VNET
(checked) Berkeley Packet Filter
vnet_default interface = igb0 (I have tried auto as well at times)
IPv4 Interface = vnet0
IPv4 Address = 192.168.1.101
IPv4 Netmask = 16
IPv4 Default Router = 192.168.0.1
(unchecked) Autoconfigure IPv6
(checked) Auto-start
My basic networking works great... but can't get the darn Plex interface to appear.
ifconfig from Plex Jail:
arp -a from my Windows desktop:
arp -a from Plex Jail:
ping google.com from Plex Jail:
netstat -a from Plex Jail:
I am not sure if there is any port security or VIP things that I have missed which would be standing in my way but if anyone has any suggestions I am ready to play the game. Thank you in advanced for your time.
