Applicable to:

  • SolusIO

Symptoms

  1. No network in SolusIO VPS created with OpenSUSE image when gateway of IP block is outside of IP block subnet:

    # ping 8.8.8.8
    Network is unreachable

  2. The following can be seen in the logs:

    # journalctl | grep fail
    ...
    wickedd[468]: __ni_rtnl_send_newroute(ipv4 0.0.0.0/0 via 147.135.64.165 dev eth0 type unicast table main scope universe protocol boot): ni_nl_talk failed [Unspecific failure]
    ...

Cause

OpenSUSE network manager does not work with gateways outside of the IP subnet.

Resolution

Due to OS limitation, to use OpenSUSE image it is required to use IP Block where the gateway is located in the same subnet, for example:

IP Block: 203.0.113.0/16
Gateway: 203.0.113.1

Add the new IP Block in SolusIO and use it for OpenSUSE VPS.
