Re: Change IP address

Hi:

# /sbin/set_parms ipaddress
# /sbin/set_parms addl_network

-or:

# /sbin/set_parms initial

A reboot will be required (twice in the first instance; once in the second).

Regards!

Re: Change IP address

For every NIC card in your system , you can configure the IP , Mask ,gateway and brodcast address in the /etc/rc.confog.d/netconf file .

After you have modified the netconf file , you can either reboot for the new changes to take effect or simply do a
#/sbin/init.d/net start
and then verify using
#netstat -rn
and then remove the old routes using
#route del command .

Re: Change IP address

For IP address ..
# /sbin/set_parms ip_address
For the rest (except DHCP) ..
# /sbin/set_parms addl_netwrk
For DHCP server change .. I think you can use SAM to do this ..

Re: Change IP address

Agree.
If you want 'all in 1' combo deal - run set_parms and just answer the questions.

Hope this helps.

Re: Change IP address

Hi,

The best way to configure evrything in one is by using,

set_parms initial

this command will drive you thru all the network services.

Re: Change IP address

Seems to me that if your network is all DHCP based that you just need to make the changes on the DHCP server and then reboot the clients. They should learn all of the changes from the server when they come up.
