Second network card configuration not working.
- by Sebas
I have 4 servers running Centos 5. All of them have two ethernet network cards.
I have configured 192.168.1.x IP addresses on their eth0 card. They are all connected to the same switch using their eth0 card and they are all working.
I have configured 10.72.11.x IP addresses on their eth1 card.They are all connected to the same switch - a different one from the switch used with eth0 card - using their eth1 card and they are NOT all working.
Their configuration files is like:
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=10.72.11.236
BROADCAST=10.72.11.191
NETMASK=255.255.255.192
NETWORK=10.72.11.128
HWADDR=84:2B:2B:55:4B:98
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
ONBOOT=yes
The interfase is starting and configured as I need.
[root@sql1 network-scripts]# ifconfig

I also added a route-eth1 file that looks like:
10.0.0.0/8 via 10.72.11.254
Routing looks fine to me:
[root@sql1 network-scripts]# netstat -rn
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
10.72.11.192 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.192 U 0 0 0 eth1

0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
But I cannot ping one server from the other.
[root@sql1 network-scripts]# ping 10.72.11.235

What am I doing wrong?
