LineRate 2.6.1 License activation fails
Hi,I am in the process of licensing the LineRate v2.6.1 and having some issues.
My installation is VMWare based. it has 3 network cards as required. the network is configured and I can ping api.f5.com
with following results:
*UNLICENSED:LROS bash "ping api.f5.com" PING api.f5.com (104.219.104.164): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 104.219.104.164: icmp_seq=0 ttl=235 time=114.681 ms 64 bytes from 104.219.104.164: icmp_seq=1 ttl=235 time=121.781 ms 64 bytes from 104.219.104.164: icmp_seq=2 ttl=235 time=120.207 ms ^C --- api.f5.com ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0.0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 114.681/118.890/121.781/3.045 ms
I run:
configure licensing regkey phone-home userid "" secret "" activation auto
Then I run: bash "sudo tail /var/log/controller.messages"
It results in the following output:
Apr 8 10:48:50 LROS LROS: Licensing: Login failed with exit code: 6, output: curl: (6) name lookup timed out Apr 8 10:48:50 LROS LROS: Licensing: upload of empty bundle failed with status -1: Login failed with exit code: 6, output: curl: (6) name lookup timed out Apr 8 10:48:50 LROS LROS: WARN: Unable to login with configured user: , trying fallback user.

When I run: show licensing brief
I get the following:

Am I missing something? Please advaise
Running the following fixed my issue:
configure
ip dns
name-server 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220
I basically pointed to a different public DNS server as for some reason those from google did not work.
Thanks.
