whether they were sent to its IPv4 address or its IPv6 address.
To set the unit's IP address in IPv4 format, enter the following command in root view to configure the IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway:
root> platform management ip set ipv4-address <ipv4-address> subnet
<subnet> gateway <gateway> name <name> description <name>
