If you are configuring DHCP, enter the following command:
ifconfig e0a
-auto
v
If you are configuring manual connections, enter the following command:
ifconfig e0a -addr= filer_addr -mask= netmask -gw= gateway -dns= dns_addr
-domain= dns_domain
filer_addr is the IP address of the storage system.
netmask is the network mask of the storage system.
gateway is the gateway for the storage system.
dns_addr is the IP address of a name server on your network.
dns_domain is the Domain Name System (DNS) domain name. If you use this
optional parameter, you do not need a fully qualified domain name in the
netboot server URL; you need only the server's host name.
