Jumpstart fails with ICMP Destination unreachable

UNIX Solaris
1

Hi

I am trying to perform a jumpstart with values below

client sf440-003 - ip x.x.133.2
jumpstartserver zeus - ip x.x.133.19

The jumpstart tftp works as it should, I boot the machine with boot net - install etc. But when it should do a PORTMAP it fails with ICMP error.

Any ideas on what is causing this?

This is the printout from the client

have you checked the ethernet connection? is there a firewall inside your switch that blocks ports?
try to boot the 440 fron dvd and give it the ip and after that try to ping your network (for troubleshoting).

Hi

Thanks for your comments.
I recently had another sun SW installed on it and have booted on the old SW and a ping is possible.
I am not sure about firewall issues but this has worked before but than I used another jumpstart server(on the same subnet though)
