My Galileo Gen 2 is connected to my laptop ethernet and when I type ifconfig in the terminal, I am getting two ethernet host with same name (enp0s20f6) and same Hardware Address. Why there is two ethernet host when I have only one?

root@galileo:~# ifconfig

enp0s20f6 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 98:4F:EE:01:CC:89

Where as when I connect the galileo to wifi router's lan, only one ethernet host is displayed:

root@galileo:~# ifconfig

enp0s20f6 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 98:4F:EE:01:CC:89

RX bytes:207571 (202.7 KiB) TX bytes:207571 (202.7 KiB)

Now the problem is I couldn't share my laptop internet to galileo via Lan (by following this http://www.instructables.com/id/Intel-Galileo-Share-LaptopPC-WiFi-to-Galileo-over-/ instructable)

Hi Vijayenth,

you have one physical and one logical interface. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subinterface https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subinterface

The name of subinterface/logical interface is enp0s20f6:avahi.

I guess this software is on your board: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avahi_%28software%29 Avahi (software) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi Vijayenth,

Are you having errors after the last step of the tutorial?

Which is the output of running uname -a?

Did you enable the sharing option on your network?

Regards,

Charlie

Hi CMata_Intel

root@galileo:~# uname -a

Linux galileo 3.8.7-yocto-standard # 1 Tue Jun 9 22:07:14 GMT 2015 i586 GNU/Linux

I enabled the internet sharing option in my laptop. I didn't get any error in the last step of the tutorial.

Result of ipconfig command in laptop:

Still internet connection is not working in the galileo. Any workaround to solve this problem?

I guess you have fixed the problem with DNS.

Hi xbolshe,

Thank you very much. My problem is fixed after doing

connmanctl config ethernet_984fee01cc89_cable --nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
