I just can't connect to a remote locator in Geode. The command line log is pasted below:

 gfsh>connect --locator=192.168.141.128[10334]
    Connecting to Locator at [host=192.168.141.128, port=10334] ..
    No route to host (Host unreachable)

What do I need to do to add a route to the locator?

I have successfully started the locator in member1.

gfsh>start locator --name=locator1

It's wired to have this problem ,Could you guys give some tips here? Thanks for any advice.

Can you ping 192.168.141.128 from the machine that you ran connect on? That IP may not be routable from your machine. You need to get the public IP of the machine that you are running the locator on, and use that IP/hostname as the bind-address when you start the locator. e.g:

gfsh>start locator --name=loc1 --bind-address=myHostName

    Thanks for your answer. What I meant is how can I get connected to a locator from a computer of the LAN on the premise that this computer is reachable. I found 'start locator --name=loc1 --locators=peerHostName/peerIp' works. – Daniel Zhang Apr 12 '17 at 01:57
