CSR1000V (SDWAN) can't get Tunnel up to vSmart - please help

[Maxx]

Hi,

over EVE-NG I'm practicing SD-WAN etc.

I'm running vManage,vBond,vSmart version 19.2.4

I was able to connect the vEdge(s) successfully, and I was able to connect CSR 1000v running version 16.12.03-sdwan to them,

YET - I've also installed CSR 1000v 17.03.02 (not sdwan image) and I've used the command "controller-mode enable" to make it SDWAN cEdge

I've used the same configuration for the working CSR and non-working CSR (of course I've changed the IP addresses,system-ip,site-id) as a study case.

the 17.03.02 doesn't form a stable connection to the vSmart, when I type show sdwan control connections - there is a stable connection to the vMange and the vBond.

 

yet the console is showing me repeatidly over and over (without stopping for a sec) -

OMPD: Number of vSmarts connected: 1

OMPD: vSmart peer x.x.x.x state changed to Initit

OMPD: Number of vSmarts connected: 0

OMPD: vsmart peer x.x.x.x state changed to Handshake

OMPD: vSmart peer x.x.x.x state changed to Up

OMPD: Number of vSmarts connected: 1

OMPD: vSmart peer x.x.x.x state changed to Initit
