Hello,
I'm trying to set up virtualizor on Hetzner. I have done this previously without any problems. Now I keep getting the warning when logging to virtualizor panel: Quote The viifbr0 is not started. Please run service virtnetwork start My ifcfg-eth0 Code DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none ONBOOT=yes HWADDR=d4:3d:7e:f8:ec:09 IPADDR=xxx.xxx.14.241 NETMASK=255.255.255.255 SCOPE="peer xxx.xxx.14.225" GATEWAY=xxx.xxx.14.225 #IPV6INIT=yes #IPV6ADDR=2a01:4f8:201:73f0::2/64 #IPV6_DEFAULTGW=fe80::1 #IPV6_DEFAULTDEV=eth0 My route-eth0 Code ADDRESS0=0.0.0.0
NETMASK0=0.0.0.0 GATEWAY0=xxx.xxx.14.225 which is "identical" to my other servers that run virtualizor without any problem. I open a ticker on virtualizor (#829018) and after 3-4 hours I got the reply: Quote Sir i have found that the netmask of the server is 255.255.255.255 you have to change it 255.255.255.0 as the 255 in the dose not allows to create the bridge .
Please ask dc to set some other network mask . Please done please run service virtnetwork start from cli to start the bridge. In a strange way the VPS that I created on this server are functioning without any problem. My server runs Centos 6.5 x64. Why is this happening? Have Hetzner changed something that makes it imposimple for virtualizor / KVM to work on netmask 255 or is it just lack of knowldge on behalf of Virtualizor techicians or something else? Will Hetzner be able to change the Netmask only for my server or will they just laugh while reading my ticket to them? Anyone else had that issue and got it solved? How? Thank you in advance.

Sir i can see the netmask is 255.255.255.255 . please change it to 255.255.255.0 or some thing else as the bridge creation with with network mask 255.255.255.255 will always fail . Hello siddhesh, OK, changed in ifcfg-eth0 to 255.255.255.0 Code [root@d04 ~]# /etc/init.d/network restart

Update:
Hetzner has replied as below: Quote the netmask of IP xxx.xxx.14.241 is /27 so you can change the value to 255.255.255.224 I put 255.255.255.224 on the ifcfg-eth0 as NETMASK. Do I have to change this on the IP POOL settings of Virtualizor? I tried service virtnetwork start but the warning is still there. ----------------------- hostivate.com VPS hosting services |

it seems that setting NETMASK to the one provided by the Hetzner robot (when you hover the main server IP) and setting netmask to 255.255.255.0 to the Virtualizor IP pool Netmask did the trick.

I just had this problem and accidently resolved it. Very similar solution to this post with one change I think. I had to remove the GATEWAY from the ifcfg-eth0.
Here is what my files look like. Hope it helps someone. my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (changed the netmask and originally added the gateway) Code DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=none ONBOOT=yes HWADDR=xx:xx:xx:9f:63:86 IPADDR=xx.xx.29.239 #GATEWAY=xxx.xx.29.225 NETMASK=255.255.255.224 SCOPE="peer xxx.xx.29.225" IPV6INIT=yes IPV6ADDR=xxxx:xxx:xxx:20ee::2/64 IPV6_DEFAULTGW=fe80::1 IPV6_DEFAULTDEV=eth0 And my route-eth0 (made no changes to this file) Code # routing for eth0 ADDRESS0=0.0.0.0 NETMASK0=0.0.0.0 GATEWAY0=xxx.xx.29.225 And my virtualizor ip pool NETMASK is set to 255.255.255.0 as per the previous solution. Side note. I contacted Hetzner and got this response. Quote Dear Client, we are not able to help you here further because we don't offer any software support for root servers. Please have a look at our wiki for information about IP addresses: http://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/Zusaetzliche_IP-Adressen/en Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards Dirk Vetter Hetzner Online AG 08223 Falkenstein / Germany Not exactly helpful. lol. But with the help of this post I got it figured out. Thanks! |

@Landon Have you managed to set up IPv6 with Hetzner and Virtualizor?
Virtualizor's techs have tried and failed so far. Hetzner is not helpful at all (as always) in matters like these. Regards, Spyros ----------------------- hostivate.com VPS hosting services |
