Can't access default IP address; 172.16.16.16!

Hello, I am very frustrated with this bull crap about this 172.16.16.16. address! I have searched all over the web pertaining to this issue and no solutions have worked for me. I always get the error "Connection timed out". The hardware is a Dell Poweredge R310 with 8GB RAM, 4-Core Xeon processor and 200GB Storage. There ware two network ports and have tried hardlining into both of them while my PC IP was set to static 17.16.16.2. I have tried almost everything possible... please help me!

P.S. I am using the Home Edition

  • Don't get frustrated buddy.

    On fresh installation, first interface (eth 0)of your motherboard will become the internal interface with the IP 172.16.16.16 by default. Identify that interface and connect it with your laptop with 172.16.16.x ad make sure the subnet is 255.255.255.0.
    Use "https://172.16.16.16:4444" to get into the firewall.

    I have the same setup like yours and got it worked without any problem.
  • I tried connecting my computer to both ports and changed my interface to 172.16.16.2 / 255.255.255.0 / 172.16.16.1 and I still get time out error...
  • I would suggest that one of your ports is not working correctly. If you have installed the SF-OS correctly then you will receive an IP address from the SF-OS using DHCP similar to 172.16.16.17.
    If you login via the console whay can you see in the way of menus?
