Change from DHCP to static

[Ratzie]

HP 11.00 I set the server up with DHCP, but now I need to change to static...

[Tim Nelson]

edit /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

the instructions and examples are in this file.

restart net services or simply reboot when done.

( have access to the console in case you syntax error it ;)

[TTr · Accepted solution]

Modify /etc/rc.config.d/netconf and change DHCP_ENABLE to 0 (zero).

Then run set_parms (do not reboot the server yet).
/sbin/set_parms ip_address
/sbin/set_parms addl_netwrk

The set_parms command modifies /etc/rc.config.d/netconf and /etc/hosts files. Check and verify the changes in these files. After that reboot the server.

Shalom,

Quick way:
as root
sam
work through the menus and turn off DHCP.

You can also use sam to configure a statis IP address in the networking session.

Check the following configuration file before and after to see what changes.

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf
