Hi Folks,
Apologies I know this has been covered before but in all my searching I've yet to find a satisfactory answer.
As a home license user I have built myself a nice 1u rack mount firewall using an itx motherboard with Celeron J1900 cpu and twin lans and everything runs sweetly.
Initially the system used a WD Enterprise 3.5" sata disc, however I noticed the other day the device was making some unusual noises and a quick smartctl -a confirmed the drive was going bad.
I replaced the drive, using a nice cool / cheap Cruicial SSD, re-installed the UTM selecting the same management nic etc. After a basic setup, selecting no options and simply setting the base mgmt IP I restored my backup I'd previously taken.
The result a non accessible system from the web UI.
As part of my setup I'd enabled the 'loginuser' access and using a keyboard/screen on the unit itself managed to logon, proving the restore had in part worked.
Once logged on I started a new 'root' session (sudo -s) and issued an ifconfig to see what was what. The result showed ETH0 was UP but no IP assigned, ETH1 was down.
At this point I rebooted and found the exact same situation when I again logged on from the console.
This isn't the first time I've run into this 'no network config' when trying to restore a system however in the past I've always put this down to having changed the underlying hardware i.e. NIC's.
What am I doing wrong?
To be clear the _ONLY_ change to the system was the hard drive, the UTM version / NICS / IP's etc where all exactly the same.
My only suspicion is that my use of sub interfaces (VLANS) on my internal network is causing the backup/restore to fail (i.e. revealed a bug). However I only use sub interfaces on ETH0, ETH1 used for my pppoe connection had none.
Config:
ETH0 -> ETH0.10 (Vlan 10) my main network
ETH0 -> ETH0.20 (Vlan 20) iSCSI Network
ETH0 -> ETH0.30 (Vlan 30) DMZ
ETH1 -> PPPoE direct interface
Thanks for any advice.
