Re: Network IP change

Hi

edit
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf
and restart net service
/sbin/init.d/net stop start
or with ifconfig
ifconfig lan0 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

check your lan interface with:
lanscan

Hi Mehul,

You can use the set_parms script to change the ip-address.

# set_parms ip_address

Re: Network IP change

Shalom,

Hard core:

vi /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

Don't make a backup in /ec/rc.config.d it will get read next boot and you will have no networking.

Make backup elsewhere.

Make your change

restart the net daemon, better yet reboot.

> many options are available.

What you mean exactly. Are you finding more numbers of lan cards there such as lan0,1,2,3,4,5 etc. If its the case, you need to check & verify the network port which you are using and then configured accordingly.

You can use SAM and also you edit.

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf
/etc/hosts

And after this you need to restart the net daemon.

/sbin/init.d/net stop/start

Thanks

Re: Network IP change

Hi,

If you are not using SAM then the right way is set_parms ip_address

Re: Network IP change

Hi,

If you still want to use SAM, goto Network and communications -> Network interface cards ->Select the card you want to change -> Goto actions -> here you can to the following.

Modify --> to modify the existing ip's

Add IP logical interface --> Add another ip for the same card

Disable --> Disable the interface temporary.
But it won't delete the config

Delete --> To remove the config permanently.
you can configure with new ip's

Also make sure that /etc/rc.config.d/netconf is updated to make it permanently.

Hope this helps


Best wishes,

Ganesh.
