Centos 7 - ping 8.8.8.8 (connect: Network is unreachable)
I think I have a routing problem. I have set up a CentOS VM, it is connected to my network and I can ping other machines.
I cannot however ping anything outside of my network.
[root@localhost ~]# ping 8.8.8.8
connect: Network is unreachable
I also set up port forwarding on my router to forward SSH on port 22 to this machine and I cannot access it outside of my network (using putty).
Here is the output of ip route
:
[root@localhost ~]# ip route

Based on the errors, you need to update the files to look like this:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3
:
TYPE="Ethernet"
BOOTPROTO="static"
IPADDR=10.0.0.10
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
