Technical Product Specification 55
7.3.1.1 Setting IP Information (IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway)
Eth0
1. Open the /etc/ifcfg-eth0 file using the vi editor
2. Ensure the BOOTPROTO variable is set to static.
Note: Linux is case sensitive, so ensure that the BOOTPROTO variable is entered in lower case letters in
the step above.
3. Set the STATICIP variable to the IP address you want to assign to that interface.
4. Set the NETMASK variable to the appropriate netmask for your network.
5. Set the GATEWAY variable to the appropriate value for the gateway on your network
6. To activate the changes, at the user prompt, type:
/etc/rc.d/network reload
Eth1 and Eth1:1
Note: Eth1 and Eth1:1 are static IP addresses only. They do not support DHCP.
1. Open the /etc/ifcfg-eth1 file using the vi editor
2. Set the STATICIP1 variable to the IP address you want to assign to that interface.
3. Set the STATICIP2 variable to the IP address you want to assign to the active CMM on the
network. This value should ONLY be set on the active CMM, as it will be synchronized to and
overwritten on the standby CMM.
4. Set the NETMASK variable to the appropriate netmask for your network.
5. Set the GATEWAY variable to the appropriate value for the gateway on your network.
6. To activate the changes, at the user prompt, type:
/etc/rc.d/network reload
Note: The Eth1:1 address should only be changed on the active CMM. The new address will be
synchronized to the standby CMM automatically when the /etc/rc.d/network reload command is
executed.
7.3.1.2 Setting Eth0 to DHCP
1. Using the vi editor, change the BOOTPROTO variable in the /etc/ifcfg-eth0 file to dhcp.
Note: Linux is case sensitive, so ensure that the BOOTPROTO variable is entered in lower case letters in
the step above.
2. To activate the changes, the user can reboot the CMM, or at the user prompt, type:
/etc/rc.d/network reload
Note: eth1 and eth1:1 should not be set to dhcp. The BOOTPROTO variable does not exist in these files.
