[Xorp-users] Cannot start vif

[Elzer Zoltan]

Hello Pavlin 

I still have the same problem. I dont have config file, because I use live 
cd version and I dont have floppy drive. I  setup everything manally. Here 
is the config: 


interfaces {
   interface xl0 {
      vif xl0 {
	address 192.168.2.1 {
		prefix-length: 24
}
}
}
} 

interfaces {
   interface rl0 {
      vif rl0 {
	address 192.168.3.1 {
		prefix-length: 24
}
}
}
} 


fea {
   unicast-forwarding4 {
 }
} 

protocols {
   fib2mrib {
      }
} 

 ----- Here I ran commit and it succeeded. 


plumbing {
   mfea4 { 

      interface xl0 {
         vif xl0 {

         }
      } 

      interface register_vif {
         vif register_vif {

         }
      } 

 --- After this when I ran commit the same error occurred:
102 Command failed Cannot start vif xl0: underlying vif is not UP 

All interfaces are enabled (disable: false) and unicast forwarding worked 
fine. 

Regards, Turbo
