Good afternoon

I reinstalled the software trixbox with the image. ISO that can be downloaded for free.

Everything works fine except the network card for four ports. In the display, tells me on the LAN: none, I dont know if it really fault of the driver of the device or whether we need to create the file that charge the configuration of the network card.

thanks for the attention you give me.

Andresfm - I had this

Andresfm -

I had this problem the entire time I've had a Trixbox appliance. They always told me that I missed an option during the install that to me, never appeared. Maybe you'll have better luck. I still have my LAN showing none and I've went through 2 different appliances. They then tell me I have to edit some DHCP files because apparently they couldn't make it work from jump.

Good Luck. If you get it figured out let me know and maybe they'll help me fix mine...

When you install Pro onto

When you install Pro onto the appliance it will ask you if you want to configure DHCP on the second network card. If you don't then you have to manually configure an IP address on that device or configure it to act as a DHCP client.

Kerry - It does not ask you

It does not ask you that. We've been through this before. When installing a fresh copying, no one that I've talked to on this forum has had the software ask anything about enabling DHCP during setup.

If it sees a second nic, it

If it sees a second nic, it does. It has worked for me. Can you manually configure the card and have it work?

test

Good morning Kerry,

Thanks for the information and attention given.

I reinstall again to search for trixbox option dhcp showing at the beginning, but this option configuration is for the NIC that connects the trixbox for the wan, but the seconds nic (the four ports) continues to show none.

When I inside the menu options in the console, the option one, set ip address of this system, this optinos permit to me configurate again the NIC of trixbox, but this configurations is for the wan.

I have seen some files where a read the configuration the ethernet 0 (wan), the file for ehternet 1 does not exist. If I create this file with the configuration that I need to this NIC, it could works?
