In troubleshooting failed connection activation, one common issue that may arise is related to IP configuration reservation.
Identifying the Issue
When encountering a Failed Connection Activation due to an IP Configuration Reservation Issue, the first step is to check the IP address settings. Verify that the IP address configured is correct and not conflicting with other devices on the network.
Next, ensure that the NetworkManager service is running properly. Restart the service if necessary to resolve any issues that may be causing the connection problem.
If the IP address is set to be obtained automatically via DHCP, check the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol settings to ensure that the IP reservation is correctly configured on the server side.
Additionally, verify that the Ethernet cable is securely connected and not damaged. A faulty cable can also lead to connection activation failures.
By troubleshooting these key areas, you can identify and resolve the IP Configuration Reservation Issue causing the connection problem in your article.
