How to use Traceroute from Slice to public Ip address

[Jacob Goldverg]

Hello All,

I currently have a server running in a cloud provider and from a slice I deployed in SEAT I am unable to run traceroute to that Ip address. The address is IPv4 but I think that should be irrelevant as Fabric does the ip translation itself.

I also found this shell script called  nat64.sh https://github.com/fabric-testbed/jupyter-examples/blob/main/fabric_examples/fablib_api/accessing_ipv4_services_from_ipv6_nodes/nat64.sh but it does not seem to work on my Ubuntu 22 slice (slice id: d9667002-64f1-4df0-9c19-ff00a5243359).

 

Any advice on how to get traceroute from the slice to IPv4 server to work would be great.

Thank you,

Jacob

If you are trying to reach this server via the *management* interface, it may or may not work depending on whether the site you are in is using IPv4 or (most of them) IPv6 as a management address. To do what you want to do you need to use the dataplane with FABNetv4Ext service. Please read more here
