DHCP Server Cannot Ping FOG Server

[Exig3nci]

Hello All,
So I’ve created my own little network and got DHCP up and running properly, I have the FOG server installed and I can ping the DHCP server (10.10.1.1), but when I got over to my DHCP server, I receive a host unreachable error when trying to ping the FOG server (10.10.1.2).

Any idea what the issue might be? I know I have the DHCP running properly, everything checks out, I have both firewalls turned off on the DHCP and FOG server.

More details. What OS, what version of OS? As appropriate, what version of FOG?

[Exig3nci]

The DHCP server is Windows 2k8 R2, Fog 1.2.0 on Ubuntu 14.04

@Exig3nci How did you ensure firewall was disabled?, Is the FOG Server a VM? If server is a vm, is the nic natted or bridged?

[Exig3nci]

It is not a VM, I used sudo ufw disable.

Is the FOG Server with an IP that is Static? If it is static, does the FOG Servers subnet mask match that of what your DHCP server is distributing across? (255.255.255.0 on fog, but dhcp is handing out 255.255.0.0)

@Tom-Elliott I made a reservation in DHCP for the FOG server, so that it picks up 10.10.1.2, subnets match.

@Exig3nci TCPDump… see if the FOG server is even hearing the pings.

Also - on the fog server - doublecheck the IP… don’t just assume it’s getting DHCP or getting DHCP correctly.

ip addr

@Wayne-Workman I actually got it working now, the dhcp and FOG are now communicating.
Issue is now that I get "Could not boot: no such file or directory (http:ipxe.org/2d12603b) as an error when the client tries to boot into the FOG.

@Exig3nci Can you get a screen shot of it?
