Re: [Vyatta-users] Vyatta Router Test Unsucessful last night
I attempted the throw from Cisco to Vyatta last night, and failed. Could it be possible that they would need to clear arp cache or something similar? I am really stumped on this one. I even set an address on my laptop in the same subnet of the Vyatta up side, and it talked to my laptop. While I've only seen this issue with crappy upstream providers, it *is* possible that they need to clear their arp cache. I have two firewall/routers using VRRP. When I fail over to the secondary, it takes about 15 minutes for my upstream provider to notice despite sending gratuitous ARP broadcasts telling them something has changed. I'm not sure how long of an outage you can afford, but one possible line of troubleshooting is waiting to see how long it takes for your Vyatta box to be noticed. Not sure if your upstream provider is like mine, but I got nowhere with their NOC. Course that's my fault for colocating with a provider who specializes in broadband/dialup, not colo. The other poster had a good idea too. Go ahead and set your Vyatta MAC to that of your Cisco box. This [should] ease the transition.

Re: [Vyatta-users] Vyatta Router Test Unsucessful last night
I attempted the throw from Cisco to Vyatta last night, and failed. From what I can see, the Vyatta configuration is comparable to the Cisco's configuration with the exception of the subnets on the interface being class C since Vyatta cannot create routes directed toward an interface through the CLI. The problem: I could not ping my ISP's router (Vyatta's default route). I am pretty sure they are running Cisco equipment. Everything on our side worked fine (routes, etc). Could it be possible that they would need to clear arp cache or something similar? I am really stumped on this one. I even set an address on my laptop in the same subnet of the Vyatta up side, and it talked to my laptop. If anyone has seen a similar senario and has any tips please let me know, OR if you would like to see the cisco config and the Vyatta config to take a look, I am willing to provide.

What kind of circuit is it? Do you need to clone your old MAC address? Short of that it would help to be able to see the config.
