2.7.1 Viewing the Network Interfaces
To view the network interfaces, you can run the ipconf.pl command.
Example 2-2 Viewing the default network interfaces for an Oracle Exadata X8M-2 database server
The following example shows the output for an Oracle Exadata X8M-2 database server without the additional network card. In addition to the RDMA Network Fabric interfaces, the output shows the interfaces for three network cards:
- A single port 1/10Gb card,
eth0 - A dual port 10 or 25Gb card, on eth1 and eth2
- A dual port 10 or 25Gb card, on eth3 and eth4

Example 2-4 Viewing the default network interfaces for an Oracle Exadata X6-2 database server
The following example shows the output for an Oracle Exadata X6-2 database server without the additional network card. In addition to the RDMA Network Fabric interfaces, the output shows the interfaces for two network cards:
- A quad port 10Gb card, on eth0 to eth3
- A dual port 10Gb card, on eth4 and eth5
