System Administration Guide: IP Services

ProcedureHow to Modify the Advertisements Section

  1. Assume the Primary Administrator role, or become superuser, on the system where you want to enable Mobile IP.

    The Primary Administrator role includes the Primary Administrator profile. To create the role and assign the role to a user, see Chapter 2, Working With the Solaris Management Console (Tasks), in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.

  2. Type the following command for each label that you want to modify in the Advertisements section:


    # mipagentconfig change adv device-name <label> <value>

    For example, if you are changing the agent's advertised lifetime to 300 seconds for device hme0, use the following command.


    # mipagentconfig change adv hme0 AdvLifetime 300
