eth ip mgmt
Assigns to an Ethernet interface an IP address which is to be used for management
purposes only and not for IP address translation. This management IP address is
generally a private network address used solely by the ISP.
The management IP address is separate from the IP address used for IP address
translation. The IP address used for address translation is generally a public IP
address valid on the Internet. It is set by the
eth ip addr
command.
NOTE:
The management address is not effective until after the next
save
and
reboot
.
NOTE:
To use the management address as the source address for a ping, you must specify it
using the -I option on the
ping
command. For example, to use management address
192.168.1.2 when pinging destination address 192.168.100.100, specify:
ping -I 192.168.1.2 192.168.100.100
NOTE:
To use the management address as the source address for a copy, you must specify
both the source and destination addresses on the
copy
command.
To list the current management address for the Ethernet interface, if any, use the
eth
list
command. To set a management address for the WAN interface, see
remote
setmgmtipaddr
.
