Hi Mark, Thank you!
But I find that this command, "ipadm create-addr", only works for new interfaces. For those interfaces plumbed up by default, it does not work. How do I manually re-config existing interfaces? it seems that I can not delete these existing interfaces and re-create them to assign new addresses. I currently have a box with nxge0 set to 172.17.139.24 by dhcp server. I want to set it to 172.17.138.79 static address, how do I do it? r...@socrates:~# ifconfig -a lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 qlge0: flags=1000842<BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 8 inet 0.0.0.0 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 0.0.0.255 ether 0:c0:dd:12:e:14 nxge0: flags=1004843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 13 inet 172.17.139.24 netmask fffffe00 broadcast 172.17.139.255 ether 0:21:28:4:1d:4a lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1 inet6 ::1/128 qlge0: flags=20002004841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 8 inet6 fe80::2c0:ddff:fe12:e14/10 ether 0:c0:dd:12:e:14 nxge0: flags=20002004841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 13 inet6 fe80::221:28ff:fe04:1d4a/10 ether 0:21:28:4:1d:4a r...@socrates:~# ipadm delete-if nxge0 Aug 27 00:39:16 socrates in.ndpd[1119]: Interface nxge0 has been removed from kernel. in.ndpd will no longer use it Aug 27 00:39:16 socrates nwamd[527]: 1: nwamd_dhcp_managing: ipadm_addr_info failed for nxge0: Interface does not exist r...@socrates:~# ipadm create-addr -t -T static -a local=172.17.138.79 nxge0/v4 addr Aug 27 00:41:58 socrates nwamd[527]: 1: nwamd_ncu_handle_if_state_event: address 172.17.138.79 not managed by nwam added, removing it Aug 27 00:41:58 socrates nwamd[527]: 1: nwamd_ncu_handle_if_state_event: address 172.17.138.79 not managed by nwam removed, nothing to do ipadm: Could not create address: Interface does not exist r...@socrates:~# ifconfig -a lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 qlge0: flags=1000842<BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 8 inet 0.0.0.0 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 0.0.0.255 ether 0:c0:dd:12:e:14 nxge0: flags=1004843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 13 inet 172.17.139.24 netmask fffffe00 broadcast 172.17.139.255 ether 0:21:28:4:1d:4a lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1 inet6 ::1/128 qlge0: flags=20002004841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 8 inet6 fe80::2c0:ddff:fe12:e14/10 ether 0:c0:dd:12:e:14 nxge0: flags=20002004841<UP,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv6> mtu 1500 index 13 inet6 fe80::221:28ff:fe04:1d4a/10 ether 0:21:28:4:1d:4a -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
