Hello community!
I’m currently trying to configure a backup Internet to my SRX240 and I have a Huawei 4G router for this purpose (this is the model coming from the ISP).
Now I ordered a static IP, let’s say 80.81.82.83/24. I tried to configure statically but this didn’t work (cannot ping anything on the Internet), so I tried with DHCP and I receive a strange default route: 192.168.8.1.
Here is the setup:
LAN PC ge-0/0/1.0 SRX ge-0/0/2.0 4G router (bridge mode)
----------- 192.168.0.10 ---- 192.168.0.1/24 ----------- 80.81.82.83/24-----------
Here is my configuration:
srx>show configuration interfaces ge-0/0/2.0
description Backup-4G;
family inet {
dhcp;
}
And the result for show interfaces terse:
ge-0/0/2.0 up up inet 80.81.82.83/24
srx>show route
inet.0: 9 destinations, 9 routes (9 active, 0 holddown, 0 hidden)
+ = Active Route, - = Last Active, * = Both
0.0.0.0/0 *[Access-internal/12] 00:10:16
> to 192.168.8.1 via ge-0/0/2.0
(…)
Now when trying to send traffic, the device refuses:
srx > ping 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: sendto: No route to host
^C
--- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
Using traceoptions I can see the following in the logs:
Mar 25 20:43:17 20:43:17.815743:CID-0:RToing DESTINATION addr route-lookup

Same result when trying from a computer connected to the SRX.
However when connecting the 4G router to a Windows computer, same routing but it works!

Anyone has an idea how to resolve this issue? Thanks a lot!
