Set Oracle ILOM Network Addresses (IPv4)

Language:

Assign static network addresses to the following components prior to powering on the server for the first time.

Note - This task documents how to assign IPv4 network addresses to the SP components. To assign IPv6 network addresses, see Set Oracle ILOM Network Addresses (IPv6).

Confirm that you are logged in to the Active SP.
See Log In to the Active SP.

Set the gateway IP address for all SP addresses.

-> set /SP/network pendingipgateway=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Set "pendingipgateway" to "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"

Set the netmask IP address for all SP addresses.
```
-> set /SP/network pendingipnetmask=255.255.255.0
Set "pendingipnetmask" to "255.255.255.0"
```
This example uses 255.255.255.0 to set the netmask. Your network environment subnet might require a different netmask. Use a netmask number most appropriate to your environment.
Assign the required IP addresses for the SP components.
- SP0:
```
-> set /SP/network/SP0/ pendingipaddress=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Set "pendingipaddress" to "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
```
- SP1:
```
-> set /SP/network/SP1/ pendingipaddress=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Set "pendingipaddress" to "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
```
- Active SP:
```
-> set /SP/network/ACTIVE_SP/ pendingipaddress=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Set "pendingipaddress" to "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
```
- Assign one address for each PDomain SPM:
```
-> set /SP/network/HOSTx/ pendingipaddress=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Set "pendingipaddress" to "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
```
  Note - Assign network addresses to the PDomain SPM hosts (HOSTx) if you require the PDomains to support rKVMS functionality. These addresses are not required to access the SPs over the network.

Verify that you have set the network addresses correctly.

For brevity, this SPARC M7-16 server example shows only the output for the IP address properties.

-> show /SP/network -level 2 -output table pendingipaddress pendingipnetmask pendingipgateway
Target                       | Property                         | Value
-----------------------------+----------------------------------+------------------
/SP/network                  | pendingipgateway                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/SP/network                  | pendingipnetmask                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/SP/network/ACTIVE_SP        | pendingipaddress                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/SP/network/HOST0            | pendingipaddress                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/SP/network/HOST1            | pendingipaddress                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/SP/network/HOST2            | pendingipaddress                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/SP/network/HOST3            | pendingipaddress                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/SP/network/SP0              | pendingipaddress                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/SP/network/SP1              | pendingipaddress                 | xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
. . .

Type the following command to make the new addresses take affect.
```
-> set /SP/network commitpending=true
```

Display the IP addresses to confirm that they have been updated.

-> show /SP/network -level 2 -output table ipaddress ipnetmask ipgateway

Continue the installation by specifying the altitude of the server.
See Set the Server Altitude.
