Cannot ping remote sites using Zabbix Appliance

[drakeca]

I downloaded and installed the latest appliance on a spare computer in our office.

Our local office network uses 10.79.4.X and 10.79.5.X (subnet 255.255.254.0). The server has been assigned 10.79.5.249.

If I log into the SuSE installation the server can ping itself, along with machines on the 10.79.4.X subnet. For some reason I cannot ping our remote office locations. I also cannot access the Internet in order to update the Zabbix package. I want to set up an ICMP monitor to ensure our branch routers are online. Branches closest to us use 10.79.8.X, 10.79.10.X, etc. Branches in other regions use 10.81.X.X, 10.83.X.X, etc.

All branches are connected via WAN and on our Windows servers once I configure our head office gateway (10.79.4.10), we can ping any branch machine.

If I run a route command on the SuSE box I get the following:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.79.4.0 * 255.255.254.0 U 0 0 0 enp0s25
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo

I assume my table needs to be updated but I am not sure what I need to add to ensure this machine can ping all branches in our WAN (and also receive updates from the Internet).

My apologies, I am a Linux newbie and know enough to get myself into trouble. Thought I would check with the experts first.

Thanks.

NVM.

I re-enabled DHCP and restarted network services. Was able to PING remote locations after doing this. Check route table and it added a default route. Gave machine static IP and restarted net svcs again. The route table was still in place and I can now PING remote sites.
