I apologize if this is a repeat, but my search did not turn up any results. I have what appears to me to be a strange issue.
First of all I am running ASG 7.508 currently double NAT'd behind a Motorola SBG6580 cable modem. The external ethernet connection on Astaro is set to Cable Modem(DHCP) mode and pulls an IP address without issues from the modem.
As I don't want to settle for double NATing I put the modem in bridged mode in an attempt to have the external interface of Astaro have the public IP assigned to it. When I put the modem into bridged mode (and restart everything just for good measure) Astaro external interface won't pull an IP address from the modem. It remains blank. I have of course tried to renew the IP address from the web interface but haven't had any success.
I know that the modem is successfully entering bridged mode and assigning the public address because when I connect to the modem via wireless on my laptop it assigns the public address to the wireless interface of the laptop.
Is there something I'm overlooking, or should I be looking for something wrong with the modem?
Thanks for any help.
