IP address for NAT'd CLM

[mcarey]

Upgraded a CLM from R55P to R62 and went to push out the new NGX license, but the license would not apply to SmartDashboard because the IP address on the license is not the same IP defined on the object in SmartDashboard.

The problem is the CLM is defined in the MDS as it's public IP address, but the CLM is actually behind another firewall and is NAT'ing to that address, so its real IP address is 192.168.x.x. This was the setup in NG AI R55 and worked fine, but I can't get it to work in R62 and don't know how they got this working before.

I can only create a license with the public address and push it out successfully, but when trying to sign into the GUI, it shows me the fingerprint, but says no license exist when logging into the server localhost, iserver 4 (hostname), or the private address?

How can I apply the license with the private address to the CLM defined with a public address in the MDS??

Use a Local License and install it on the CLM's Private IP address locally.

It hit me last night. I guess I've always used SmartUpdate to push license and never thought to revert to the "old" days of physically installing a license.

Thanks
