Assign a New Director IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway IP Address

If you are using the local RS-232 serial interface to access the CLI, then you need to configure the IP Address that Indigo management software, when available, will use to communicate with Director. If Director must communicate through a Gateway to reach the network, then set the Gateway IP Address for that Gateway.

If you are running the CLI remotely, you can change the IP Address, but when you do, you will lose your SSH connection since it is talking to the old IP Address. In that case, initiate a new SSH session to the new IP address and you can continue using the CLI remotely.

To assign a new IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway IP Address to Director:

1.Enter sysip show. The current IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway IP Address are displayed.

2.Enter sysip set ipaddr=<new ip address> mask=<new netmask> gw=<new gateway>. The IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway IP Address are made pending.

3.Enter sysip show. Verify that the displayed "Pending Sysip Info" IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway IP Address are the desired values.

4.Enter sysip commit to activate the new IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway IP Address.

Example: sysip set ipaddr=10.60.4.180 mask=255.0.0.0 gw=10.0.0.1 sysip commit

Tip!____________________________________________________________________________________________________

The sysip set command requires that all three arguments are present.

Assign a New Manager IP Address

Configure the Manager IP Address to the IP Address of the remote management server, for example an IBM Tivoli or HP OpenView server.

Change Port Modes

To change the port mode:

1.Enter port set ports=<portlist> autoneg=< on off> speed=< 10 100 1000 > duplex=< full half> to set the mode of a 10/100/1000 Copper port.

Example: Enter port set ports=n1.5 autoneg=off speed=100 to set Network Port 5 in DNM 1 to 100Mbps fixed speed. Duplex mode is left in its default state of full duplex.

2.Repeat Step 1 as desired for ports n1.2 to n1.12, n2.1 to n2.12, m.1 to m.12, and t1.1 to t2.2; this procedure only affects 10/100/1000 Copper ports.

Tip!____________________________________________________________________________________________________

You can change the modes of multiple ports in a single command by specifying the ports in the portlist. Use a comma to separate items in the list, and use a dash (-) to indicate a range. For example, this portlist includes the first three ports in DNM 1 and the first port in DNM 2: ports=n1.1-n1.3,n2.1
