  • 1.  MX5 ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address

    Posted 09-18-2018 11:56

    Hello,

    I was setting up snmp on a MX5 when I realized that it can't talk the to the snmp server.

    The log message said

    SNMPD_SEND_FAILURE: jnx_netsnmp_udp_send: send message  failure: Can't assign requested address

     

    When I gave lo0 ip address the message changed to:

    SNMPD_SEND_FAILURE: jnx_netsnmp_udp_send: send message failure: No route to host

     

    Ping also doesn't work unless the interface is specified.

    What am I missing? I tried comparing config with MX80 that this router is connected to and I couldn't find out anything that stands out.

     

    Thanks!

    Hi Hunt,

    Below message is triggred when no route is confiured for the specified client.

     

    SNMPD_SEND_FAILURE: jnx_netsnmp_udp_send: send message failure: No route to host

     

    Please check if route is configured for the client.

    >show route <client ip>

     

    Thanks, 

    Gaurao

    The routes seem to look fine, as the router been functioning properly for years.

    I can ping fine as long as I specify the interface.

     

    show route 10.4.64.30

    0.0.0.0/0          *[Static/5] 23w6d 00:38:12
                        > to X.X.183.249 via ge-1/0/0.0
                        [Static/25] 23w6d 00:38:39
                        > to X.X.183.253 via ge-1/1/0.0

     

    10.4.0.0/16        *[Static/5] 8w6d 20:05:17
                        > to 10.4.1.1 via ge-1/1/5.129

    Is the address you use to successfully ping the snmp server the lo0 address configured?

     

    Can you check that the trace route also works sourced from that address?

     

    Are we talking snmp polling inbound?  If so, what about routes and access from server to mx.

    I configured lo0 as 127.0.0.1/24 just to see if that what it needed. I also tried giving it IP addess from a valid range.

    If I run ping 10.4.64.30 interface ge-1/1/5.129 works fine.

    Other then that, the router works fine and it has been since I started working with it.

    If I run show route it gives me a proper route.

     

    I added the configuration below with some stuff reducted.

    Since the address you are trying to ping is reachable through a specific routing instance, you need to specify the instance in the ping command:  'ping 10.4.64.30 routing-instance Private'.  Or, as you confirmed, specifying the exit interface explicitly works as well.

     

    For your SNMP, it should work if you configure 'set snmp routing-instance-access' on the MX.  By default most services, including SNMP, only work within the default instance.  You can find more info at https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/concept/understanding-snmp-support-for-routing-instances-junos-nm.html.

     

    Hope this works for you.

    Thanks for the configuration and the access data.

     

    If I run ping 10.4.64.30 interface ge-1/1/5.129 works fine.
    set interfaces ge-1/1/5 unit 129 vlan-id 129
    set interfaces ge-1/1/5 unit 129 family inet address 10.4.1.5/24
    set routing-instances Private interface ge-1/1/5.129

    So the access for snmp will be inside a routing instance as mentioned by  Louis.  

     

    Can you confirm that ping from routing instance alone works?

    ping 10.4.64.30 routing-instance Private

    If so, then all you should need to add to snmp is the following:

    set snmp routing-instance-access
    set snmp community NAME routing-instance Private clients 10.4.64.30
    

    subsitute your community name for NAME.

    Posted 09-20-2018 06:24

    Those 3 lines already exist in the config

    set interfaces ge-1/1/5 unit 129 vlan-id 129
    set interfaces ge-1/1/5 unit 129 family inet address 10.4.1.5/24
    set routing-instances Private interface ge-1/1/5.129

    Pinging using routing instance works.

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that the request from the snmp polling server has to be in the format of

    RoutingInstance@community

    Private@xxxxx

     

    When just the community is used the response will be from the master or root routing instance.
