HA Interface OPT do not match on Secondary
-
Hi,
I've tried to add a new interface to my primary and secondary and noticed that one of the existing OPT on the secondary was picking up the settings, DHCP being the one that flagged the issue.
Is there any easy way to get my secondary options to match my primary?
2 x XG-1537 with Quad Port Expansion Cards
Looking at the configs shows the issue:
PRIMARY
<opt4>
<descr><![CDATA[VHUB4VTI1]]></descr>
<if>ipsec3000</if>
<enable></enable>
<spoofmac></spoofmac>
</opt4>
<opt5>
<descr><![CDATA[VHUB4VTI0]]></descr>
<if>ipsec19000</if>
<enable></enable>
<spoofmac></spoofmac>
</opt5>SECONDARY
<opt5>
<descr><![CDATA[VHUB4VTI1]]></descr>
<if>ipsec3000</if>
<enable></enable>
<spoofmac></spoofmac>
</opt5>
<opt6>
<descr><![CDATA[VHUB4VTI0]]></descr>
<if>ipsec19000</if>
<enable></enable>
<spoofmac></spoofmac>
</opt6>Thanks for the help

So on Primary opt 6 is used for the next new port assignment, while on the Secondary opt 4 is used for any new port assignment. Then when the Sync happens the Primary applies the newly assigned port with opt 6 settings to the already existing opt 6 on the Secondary.
<opt6>**<descr><![CDATA[VHUB4VTI0]]></descr>
This then causes all kinds of havok
Anyone know a way to re-assign the opt labels / assignment?

You can export the interface config from the secondary node:
Diagnostics > Backup & Restore > Backup & Restore
At Backup area select "Interfaces".Download the file. Then load it into a text editor and order the interfaces accordingly to the primary.
Save the file and re-import it into the secondary.
