topic OneView configure second interface in DHCP. in HPE OneView

OneView configure second interface in DHCP.

Hello,

I am trying to configure a second network interface in the oneview appliance. I read this can be achieved only via the rest api, is it true?

I am trying to run the following python code but I receive an error : "hpeOneView.exceptions.HPEOneViewTaskError: A appliance-2 IPv4 host name is required for DHCP configuration."

#!/usr/bin/python3

import logging
import sys
import getpass

from pprint import pprint
from hpeOneView.oneview_client import OneViewClient
from hpeOneView.exceptions import HPEOneViewException

# Default credentials to login to oneview
if sys.stdin.isatty():
print("Enter credentials")
USERNAME = input("Username: ")
PASSWORD = getpass.getpass("Password: ")
else:
USERNAME = sys.stdin.readline().rstrip()
PASSWORD = sys.stdin.readline().rstrip()

CONFIG = {
"api_version": 6000,
"ip": "<OneViewIP>",
"credentials": {
"userName": USERNAME,
"password": PASSWORD
}
}

# Initiate a connection to the appliance and instanciate a new OneViewClient class object
ONEVIEW_CLIENT = OneViewClient(CONFIG)
network_interface = ONEVIEW_CLIENT.appliance_network_interfaces

updated_details = {"applianceNetworks": [{
"hostname": "<oneviewHostname>",
"networkLabel":"ILOnetwork",
"interfaceName": "ILOnetwork",
"device": "eth1",
"macAddress": "<MACaddress>",
"ipv4Type": "DHCP"
}]}
updated_network_interface = network_interface.create(updated_details)
pprint(updated_network_interface.data)
print("\nNetwork Interface updated successfully")

Could you help finding what is going wrong?

Thank you in advance...

Hi linuxteam-belgi,

Yes, you heard right. Configuration of the secondary NIC is supported only through the REST API.
For 2nd NIC configuration, you need to retrieve the network settings first, then configure the secondary NIC using the following NIC REST API.
Please refer the link for more information on configuration. Hope it gives solution for you.
