Use the configure-firstnet command to configure the first network in the appliance after racking and connecting the power and network cables. This command ensures that the system is available in the network, enabling you to manage the deployment through the Oracle Appliance Manager Web Console.
Syntax
To ensure that the system is available in the network:
configure-firstnet
Example 9-2 Configuring the First Network
Configure the first network to use a btbond1 interface without configuring DHCP. Complete the IP address, netmask address, and gateway address.
Values that you need to provide are shown in italic font, with the exception of the net1 gateway address; the program obtains the gateway IP. The program derives this gateway address using the network information you provided for the other IP addresses. Accept this value, unless your network administrator provides an alternative gateway address that is different from the default that the appliance command-line interface detects.
