Hello,
We have deployed a virtual Infoblox (IB805 - version 8.4.3) on Azure following the best pratices (Bicep deployment via Azure Devops).
This machine is by default having two NICs (1x LAN1 and 1x MGMT) in 2 different subnets.
However the Infoblox system didn't provision the MGMT interface and it is only having a single LAN1 activated.
When I try to manual bring up the MGMT interface through the CLI, I get the following error: "Cannot enable Management interface when LAN1 is configured with a dynamic address".
The message shouldn't be expected because the LAN1 IP was statically defined during the pipieline deployment.
Did anyone within the community experience a similar problem ?
Regards,
G

Had the same issue. We had to just do a quick run through of the "set network" command first then the "set interface mgmt" on the console port to enable it. The set network command will give the IP information that was used during setup.

There's a hack for that (although not officially supported accroding to support). Works with NIOS 9.0.4. Pass this as as' Enhanced options' yaml file (along with the usual like "temp_license or remote_console_enabled"):
# infoblox-config
remote_console_enabled: y
lan1:
v4_addr: 10.10.10.10
v4_netmask: 255.255.255.0
v4_gw: 10.10.10.1
mgmt:
v4_addr: 10.10.20.10
v4_netmask: 255.255.255.0
v4_gw: 10.10.20.1
Cloud-init seems to clear the "automated address" flag and the VM gets deployed with MGMT interface up and accepting traffic. I am still looking for a solution to join the Grid automatically.
Best,
Piotr
