Brief description of the problem

cli kept old IP address

Detailed step by step instructions to reproduce the problem

Fresh installation with DHCP enabled
After installation, set a different IP in the router for the NIC MAC and reboot
Cli still shows old IP
Router shows new IP live
SSH to new IP ok
if config shows correct ip in the interface:

Deleted pfsense static IP and server got an IP assigned by the DHCP:

clli shows the old static IP: 10.10.10.18

added static ip mapping:

00:15:17:dc:2c:5e 10.10.10.18 Rockstor

and rebooted the server

cli shows old dynamic IP: 10.10.10.131

pfsense shows correct IP online
10.10.10.18 00:15:17:dc:2c:5e Rockstor n/a n/a online static

Interface has correct static IP

GUI accessible via static IP, but is not showing any IP under appliance IP

Any ideas?

Hi @m3elloa,
I never checked Rockstor net code, but maybe changing management IP can solve it (I see you’re missing it)

Morning @Flyer, I don’t know where to change it :slight_smile:

The link on the top left of the screen takes me to Appliances, like in Systems -> Appliances. I can make changes to testing if directed, but only to help fix if there is something to fix.

All my VMs and servers in three different distros - CentOS 7, ubuntu, FreeBSD - talk with my DHCP flawlessly and I always set the IP after finishing installation if I don’t know the MAC address for the interface, by checking the DHCP status on my router. Works all the time. Add to this that Cli and interface are not in sync :frowning:
