Alcatel 7750SR unable to ping each other

Post by knix81 » Wed Sep 20, 2017 9:55 pm

Hi There,

I had this setup working a few months back but I had to re-installed my PC deleting my old vmware setup.

I just setup an eve-ng in my vmware player, had it running with 2 router using an Alcatel SR7750 image Timos-SR-12.0.R6-vm following the instructions in the eve-ng.net site. After configuring them, I seem unable to ping each others interface.

Its just a simple/basic setup but I seem unable to make it work. Had checked the configs and it seems I ran out of things to look at. Any idea/suggestions what else I might be missing?

I also notice that the Alcatel SR7750 was missing and the image auto recognize it as Nokia 7750 VSR-I but I guess this should be the same.

Thanks for the help in advance.

Below is my set up:

Thanks for the advice. Now I can ping the interfaces.

I had a wrong port mapping from the web vs from the 7750 configuration. All along I thought port 1/1/1 is e0.

Below is mapping that is working:
port 1/1/1 is e1
port 1/1/2 is e2
port 1/1/3 is e3
.
.
.

I guess e0 is for A/1. If I remember correctly from my initial setup a few months back, e0 is port 1/1/1. but nevertheless its all working now.
