169.254. looks awfully familiar, and it only comes up when device can't get IP. Things would go easier if HDHomerun got an IP from the router. -- William On Fri, Feb 27, 2015 at 02:21:36AM -0500, Walter Dnes wrote:
This is frustrating, because it works for me under ifconfig, but not under ip (iproute2). I have 3 devices in this scenario...
* my desktop PC 192.168.123.251/29 * an HDHomerun TV tuner that comes up in the 169.254.0.0/16 block * the ADSL router/modem at 192.168.123.254/29 to which the PC and the tuner are connected.
I'm trying to get my desktop PC to talk to the TV tuner using ip. What am I doing wrong in the following set of commands?
ip address flush dev eth0 ip link set eth0 down ip link set eth0 up ip address add 192.168.123.251/29 dev eth0 ip route add default via 192.168.123.254 ip address add 169.254.1.1/16 dev eth0 ip route delete 169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0 ip route add 169.254.0.0/16 via 192.168.123.254 ip address show ip route show
The ouput from the 2 "show" commands is... 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 brd 127.255.255.255 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:1d:09:96:6c:1c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.123.251/29 scope global eth0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet 169.254.1.1/16 scope global eth0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever default via 192.168.123.254 dev eth0 127.0.0.0/8 dev lo scope host 169.254.0.0/16 via 192.168.123.254 dev eth0 192.168.123.248/29 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.123.251
