5473.0. "ip autoconfiguration and accvio at starting point" by MUNICH::SCHWEMMER () Thu Aug 12 1993 12:16

Problem with IP Autoconfiguration in PNM 400 V1.3 under VMS V5.5-2.

IP Autoconfiguration ends in an ACCVIO during the phase

                   "querying host <ip-gateway>".

The IP-Gateway in this case is a CISCO-Box (AGS+ V8.3)

(It's possible to get information about this box over ICONIC MAP-Inter-
face. We can access all requested entitie's attributes, and also the 
address translation tables.

The routing table is big, but we can access it.)

Customer's Polycenter-machine has the address: 
            140.181.97.33/NW-mask: 255.255.240.0
The IP-Gateway has the address: 
            140.181.96.1 /NW-mask: 255.255.240.0

In MCC_AUTOCONFIG_PREFIX.DAT he has specified the default values.
Domain name is .domain.gsi .

In the configuration-file he has specified:

gwy 140.181.96.1               (= cisco)

...

permit 140.181.96.0 255.255.240.0
permit 140.181.128.0 255.255.240.0

...

permit 132.157.0.0 255.255.0.0

...

host-deny 0.0.0.0. 0.0.0.0

...

host-domainsize 1 200

...

community public 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
community GSI-SNMP 140.181.96.1 255.255.255.255

...

options -r 2 30

When he starts IP Autoconfiguration on his node, he gets the output:

        Starting IP Autoconfiguration data collection ...

        This may take a while...

*******************************************************************************

We were able to produce the same error on our inhouse-network. (Same reason
mask, same PC and PSL, same module and routine names were shown, 
but different virtual address).

In our case we used an ULTRIX-machine as IP-gateway.
But, there's a little difference. We can ping our ip-gateway, but when we try
to take a look into this entity, e.g. into the Address-Translation-Table 
(from Iconic Map Interface) we get an error window:
VMS Routine Error  %NONAME-W-NOMSG, Message number 00000000
MCC Routine Error  %MCC-E-ILVEOC,  end of current constructor has been reached

(There's no special community name specified).

Uuups, now I have 2 problems.
Could somebody please give me a hint how I can troubleshoot these 2 problems?
Thanks in advance.

With kind regards,

5473.1we can reproduce itMUNICH::SCHWEMMERFri Aug 13 1993 11:1011
    I have some news.
    
    We now were able to reproduce the same error with one of our inhouse-
    machines (ULTRIX-IP-Gateway).
    
    IP Autoconfiguration results in the mentioned ACCVIO, but we can access
    all entity attributes over Iconic map.
    
    Has somebody heard of this problem or can somebody give a hint?
    
    Mathilde.
