I have a VPS that boots up with venet0 instead of eth0, so the asl-menu complains about the interface. What file do I need to edit to have it use the venet0 interface instead?
Thank
Paul
I’ve discovered that the reason is not as I thought. This is because my VPS boots with network interfaces without a MAC Address. ChatGPT says this is “typical for OpenVZ-based VPS environments”
root@linux:~# ip link show
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
2: venet0: <BROADCAST,POINTOPOINT,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default
link/void
The suggestion to set it manually would be done in asterisk.conf
;entityid=00:11:22:33:44:55 ; Entity ID.
; This is in the form of a MAC address.
; It should be universally unique.
; It must be unique between servers communicating
; with a protocol that uses this value.
; This is currently is used by DUNDi and
; Exchanging Device and Mailbox State
; using protocols: XMPP, Corosync and PJSIP.
…but since my server doesn’t have one, it can be safely ignored.
