Admittedly this follows on from Network unavailable at new install of FreePBX 16 on Beelink EQ
The initial problem was that FreePBX 16 didn’t come with the drivers needed for the Ethernet controllers (there are 2 ports) on the Beelink.
Using a USB Ethernet adaptor got past that.
Question one is: Could you reliably run a production server (12 phones in the system) through that for the long term??
Assuming its better to use the actual ethernet ports the machine comes with…
Question 2:
I have loaded the drivers as per the intel instructions. Used modprobe to load.
Then I assigned ip address to eth0 using ifconfig eth <IP_address>
eth0 now shows up in ifconfig, I can ping that address, but it has assigned it to the same USB adaptor, and not to one of the actual ethernet adaptors.
Any suggestions on checking that the driver I’ve installed is working, and how to get the FreePBX to look for that ethernet port?
