Set the Network Management Parameters (CLI)

This task enables you to configure the NET MGT interface.

1. Access the ILOM CLI.

   See Access ILOM From the CLI.

2. Configure the network management parameters:

   -> set /SP/network property=value property=value ...

   where:

   • property is the parameter of the network to configure.

   • value is the value of the property to configure.

   The following properties are supported:

   • pendingipaddress – The value is the IP address of the CMC to be configured.

   • pendingipdiscovery – The value is the method of IP discovery to be configured, either static or dhcp.

   • pendingipgateway – The value is the IP address of the gateway to be configured.

   • pendingipnetmask – The value is the netmask to be configured.

   ---

   Note - You can configure one, several, or all properties in one command line.

3. Commit to the changes:

   -> set /SP/network commitpending=true

   For example, to set the IP address of the CMC:

   -> show /SP/network ipaddress
    /SP/network
        Properties:
            ipaddress = 123.45.67.89
   -> set /SP/network pendingipaddress=123.45.67.90
   Set ’pendingipaddress’ to ’123.45.67.90’
   -> set /SP/network commitpending=true
   Set ’commitpending’ to ’true’

   The IP address has changed to 123.45.67.90.

   ---

   Note - Changing some network management properties terminates the NET MGT connection to the CMC. You must re-establish the connection to continue administering the CMC. See Access ILOM From the CLI.

   ---

4. Access the ILOM CLI using the new IP address.

   See Access ILOM From the CLI.

5. Display the new IP address:

   -> show /SP/network ipaddress
    /SP/network
        Properties:
            ipaddress = 123.45.67.90
   ->
