Troubleshooting Network Connectivity Issues
To troubleshoot network connectivity issues for Cisco Catalyst 8000V, do the following:
-
Verify that there is an active and unexpired license installed on the VM.
Enter the show license command. The License State should be shown as “Active, In Use”.
-
Verify that the vNIC for the VMs are connected to the correct physical NIC, or to the proper vSwitch.
-
If you're using virtual LANS (VLANs), ensure the vSwitch is configured with the correct VLAN.
-
If you're using static MAC addresses or VMs that are cloned, make sure there are no duplicate MAC addresses.
Duplicate MAC addresses can cause the Cisco Catalyst 8000V feature license to become invalidated, which will disable the router interfaces.
