FIGURE E.5 Network configuration immediately after installation of OS
Remark
For details on each command used in the settings below, use man for confirmation.
Note
Do not set the host name before setting the IP address of vswif0, which exists by default immediately after the
installation of the operating system. If you do so, VMware 4.x may change the value of /etc/hosts to an unintended
value.
The description here is based on the assumption that vswif0 is used as the management LAN.
Confirming the PSA-to-MMB communication LAN and management LAN
1. The PSA-MMB communication LAN uses the physical adapter assigned BUS number 0000:00:19.0.
The management LAN uses an arbitrary physical adapter.
Execute the esxcfg-nics command to confirm the physical adapters used for the PSA-to-MMB
communication LAN and management LAN.
