try to add a default route in /etc/defaultrouter and restart your mashine or the network...

5

Thanks Duke

what should i add in defaultrouter

6

the default router of your network? or is this a standalone mashine? no internet?

7

Its standalone system without internet

8

so use the global zone as router and enable ipv4-forwarding with svcadm... just to test if it works...

9

Thanks Duke,

I did enable the ipv-4 forwarding and output from routeadm is showing " IPv4 routing enabled" and i can ping gloabl zone from local zone.

However when i booting the zone i am getting the below warning message

zoneadm: zone 'zone': WARNING: hme0:1 no matching subnet found in netmask(4) for 192.168.35.210 using default of 255.255.255.0

10

enter a netmask for the ip in "/etc/netmasks".

11

Hi Duke,

Netmask is already set and its showing following entry in /etc/netmasks

192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

I set the same in zone also however still i am getting the same waring as " zoneadm: zone 'zone': WARNING: hme0:1 no matching subnet found in netmask(4) for 192.168.35.210 using default of 255.255.255.0" .

Please suggest

That's normal. 192.168.35.210 is not in the range 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0.

$ ipcalc 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
Address:   192.168.1.0          11000000.10101000.00000001. 00000000
Netmask:   255.255.255.0 = 24   11111111.11111111.11111111. 00000000
Wildcard:  0.0.0.255            00000000.00000000.00000000. 11111111
=>
Network:   192.168.1.0/24       11000000.10101000.00000001. 00000000

So, try using 192.168.35.0/255.255.255.0 (for example).

hi,

You have given the output of ifconfig output

#ifconfig -a

lo0: flags=2001000849<up, LOOPBACK, RUNNING, MULTICAST, IPv4,
VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
zone zone
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000

hme0: flags=1000803<up, BROADCAST, MULTICAST, IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
inet 192.168.35.20 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.35.255 ether 8:0:20:c5:61:68

hme0:1: flags=1000803<up, BROADCAST, MULTICAST, IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2 zone zone
inet 192.168.35.210 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.35.255

But in this output your ip is showing in Up status, But not in running status, for this you have to add default route through command

route add default 192.168.35.1

default gatway ask your network ok it may be 192.168.35.1

add this entry in cat /etc/defaultrouter like this
default 192.168.35.1

then only you will get the status is Running then only you can ping from one zone to another zone

after adding route entry in globle zone you can see default entry automatically in non-globle zone also ok

check the link is comming in server or not in NIC card
