[16:22] <geekbri> Oh my. I'm trying to turn an old ifupdown block of code to netplan and I'm really struggling to do this.  I'm unsure how to easily share it. I've got a github gist or i could just post the old ifupdown here and one of my many failed netplan YAML attempts to replicate it.
[16:23] <schopin> geekbri: it'd be better to use a gist (or a pastebin)
[16:23] <geekbri> Done and done @schopin 
[16:23] <geekbri> https://gist.github.com/brianbianco/6319270d08a49576c78812f5c54ef80b
[16:24] <geekbri> I've had so many iterations of the attempted netplan config im not even sure which to put in it, so i chose a random one
[16:32] <schopin> geekbri: I won't have much time to dive into this, but it seems like there are IPs that are mismatched, e.g. the gateway for the default route.
[16:34] <geekbri> i may have chosen a bad config to include, let me redo this. I have the gateway correct in the one im looking at as far as I can tell
[16:34] <danilogondolfo> geekbri, I left a comment in your gist
[16:35] <geekbri> @danilogondolfo oh wow, let me compare to what i've got currently and see how close I was and give yours a try!
[16:36] <geekbri> @danilogondolfo Thanks I've tried it. It does not work. It seems to have the same issue as mine so I suspect I'm missing something entirely.  the static IP never appears in the routes
[16:37] <danilogondolfo> what IP never appears in the routes?
[16:39] <geekbri> sorry there are 2 network devices and the new device has a static ip of 172.16.19.254 which appears in the old routing tables
[16:40] <geekbri> i did notice i may simply need to change the name of device in the one you provided which i failed to do though so let me try that first.
[16:40] <danilogondolfo> right, I just translated your ifupdown file, which refers to eth1
[16:40] <geekbri> yeah sorry, thank you i appreciate that greatly. It was just an easy thing to overlook
[16:41] <geekbri> i think you might have made it work, I think even if it doesn't work with your translation I've got what i need to figure it all out
[16:41] <danilogondolfo> :) nice!
[16:41] <geekbri> oh my god it works, you are my savior of the day
[16:42] <geekbri> im able to ping the server externally at the secondary interfaces static ip. You have done me a solid
[16:43] <geekbri> I'm going to go post this somewhere on the internet for the next person like me
[16:43] <danilogondolfo> ;)
[16:43] <schopin> :)
[16:44] <geekbri> It's always funny how when you have the answer you look at it and you're ilke... well yeah of course why didn't I figure this out?
