To Add an IP Interface to the Sun Management Center Server

1. Log in as root on the server multi-IP machine.

2. List the current Sun Management Center active IP interfaces.

   Type the command /opt/SUNWsymon/sbin/esmultiip -l. For example:

   # /opt/SUNWsymon/sbin/esmultiip -l Multi IP configured with active interfaces "10.1.2.111"

3. List all IP interfaces on the machine.

   Type the command ifconfig -a. For example:

   # ifconfig -a lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index 1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 hme0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2 inet 10.1.2.111 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.1.2.255 ether 8:0:20:a8:7a:c9 hme1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 3 inet 129.1.2.222 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 129.199.199.255 ether 8:0:20:a8:7a:c9

   As shown by the above examples, only IP interface hme0 at IP address 10.1.2.111 is being used by the Sun Management Center server.

4. Add an IP interface.

   Assume that you want to add the IP interface hme1 at IP address 129.1.2.222. You would then type the command /opt/SUNWsymon/sbin/esmultiip -a 129.1.2.222.

   The IP interface is added to the list of active Sun Management Center server interfaces.
