Tunnel mode configuration check IP is not bound error?

I am using NeoLoad on a mac book. Created additional Wifi adapter for additional IP address needed to map servers. Able to detect servers in Tunnel but configuration check fails saying that IP is not bound, please add IP to Wifi.

If you need additional IP's for the tunnel recording mode you first need to configure the network range in the NeoLoad preferences under Recorder panel and make sure that the right NIC is selected on the drop down list.

The second thing is to add additional IP's in the same NIC selected above. In other words you do not have to create additional NIC but only add IP's to the existing one.

And last you need to add valid IP addresses i.e IP's not in used elsewhere.

Hello,
Same issue, using the Wi-Fi interface
I tried both adding new NIC within same interface which create Wi-Fi 2 and adding other IPs to same interface.

For adding new IPs within Wi-Fi:
sudo ifconfig en0 alias 192.168.0.101/24 up

ifconfig en0 result is the same:
en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=400<CHANNEL_IO>
ether f8:ff:c2:66:68:0c
inet 192.168.0.14 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
inet6 fe80::18a1:4de4:1426:2330%en0 prefixlen 64 secured scopeid 0x6
inet 192.168.0.101 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
nd6 options=201<PERFORMNUD,DAD>
media: autoselect
status: active
When starting the recorder I got (below) for the added IP that should work

  • Majeur - L'IP 192.168.0.101 n'est pas définie. Veuillez ajouter cette IP à Wi-Fi
  • And (below) for the IP that indeed not added

    • Majeur - Port : 443 est occupé par un autre processus sur l'adresse : 192.168.0.102

    Please what did I missed to works?

Your IP 192.168.0.101 does not seem valid. What do you have as output for the ifconfig command?

And have you tried to add your IP's like this: ifconfig en0:0 192.168.1.101 and
ifconfig en0:1 192.168.1.102

Also make sure that these IP's are available.

Normally when you start NeoLoad if you look at the LG advanced settings you should see these additional IP's if they are correctly configured. You should also be able to use them if you select one of them to validate a user path. This is to make sure that they are valid.

Thanks for quick reply.
The ifconfig result is within my post, anyway
ifconfig en0
en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=400<CHANNEL_IO>
ether f8:ff:c2:66:68:0c
inet6 fe80::18a1:4de4:1426:2330%en0 prefixlen 64 secured scopeid 0x6
inet 192.168.0.14 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
inet 192.168.0.101 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
inet 192.168.0.102 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
inet 192.168.0.103 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
nd6 options=201<PERFORMNUD,DAD>
media: autoselect
status: active

Trying: sudo ifconfig en0:0 192.168.0.101
ifconfig: interface en0:0 does not exis

Indeed I can see the IPs shown in LG Advanced, even checking the list, got same issue (see screenshot),

I confirms that the validation works correctly when selecting one IP from the above list.
