NimbostratusDiscovering the big ip from bigiq throwing an exception
Hi, I have a BigIP LTM VE runnin on my local Openstack setup. I just have on network associated with it. I am assigning a floating IP it and using this to discover it.
I am getting following exception. Please do let me know if I am doing anything wrong.
[SEVERE][4323][23 Mar 2015 23:27:21 UTC][BasicCompletion][reportError] Error getting self IP address: java.lang.Exception: No self IP matching the discovery IP for device 1241696c-625b-4063-813f-7dfa1abc9176 was found

I would recommend not connecting to a floating IP but rather a local-only self IP. Also, you should check you port lock down settings.
b_136889Port lock down in BigIP ? BigIp is not yet licensed I am trying to license it from BigIQ using pool license. Its a openstack setup and my BigIQ is there in the other network, only way BigIQ can reach BigIP is through floating IP. Is there a way to connect to BigIP from static IP ?- Brad_Parker_139You need to discover(connect) a BigIP device using a local only self-ip on the device, not the management interface. You also need to ensure that port lock down is configured to allow 443 and 22 at a minimum.
- b_136889For this do I need to add the openstack connector or something ?
