Data Connector Docker IP-Range

[#1]

Hello together,

I tried to deploy the Data Connector (DC) for my Infoblox environment. The appropriate IP should be in the network 172.17.6.0/24

If I try to ping the Default-Gateway (172.17.6.1) from the DC it is not reachable. From other VMs in the same IP-Subnet it is reachable.

If I ping for example 172.17.0.1, which is not pingable in my real network, is reachable.

Is it possible that the VM uses Docker with the Subnet 172.17.0.0/16 internally?

If yes that would explain the strange reachability behaviour of the VM.

Regards

Martin

Hello there,

Your assumption is correct.

"docker0" interface in Data Connector uses the 172.17.0.0/16 Network by default.

inet addr:172.17.0.1

Bcast:172.17.255.255

Mask:255.255.0.0

This is the reason why you are unable to ping the Gateway which falls under this Network.

Regards.

Hi,

is it possible that I can change that IP-Range?

Otherwise I can't use the appliance.

Hello,

To the best of my knowledge, the docker0 Interface in Data Connector is hardcoded and we do not have an option to change this.
