Configure network parameters
NOTE
: Skip to
step 6
if you have a DHCP environment.
DHCP is the default IP configuration. If no DHCP server
is available, please log in to Nodegrid SR via its
console or HDMI port using
admin
credentials and
configure a static IP address using CLI instructions as
follows:
[admin@nodegrid /]# cd /settings/network_connections/ETH0
[admin@nodegrid ETH0]# set ipv4_mode=
static
[+admin@nodegrid ETH0]# set ipv4_address=
10.0.0.10
[+admin@nodegrid ETH0]# set ipv4_bitmask=
24
[+admin@nodegrid ETH0]# set ipv4_gateway=
10.0.0.1
[+admin@nodegrid ETH0]# show
name: ETH0
type: Ethernet
ethernet_interface = eth0
description =
connect_automatically = yes
set_as_primary_connection = yes
enable_lldp = no
ipv4_mode = static
ipv4_address = 10.0.0.10
ipv4_bitmask = 24
ipv4_gateway = 10.0.0.1
ipv4_dns_server =
ipv4_dns_search =
ipv4_default_route_metric = 90
ipv4_ignore_obtained_default_gateway = no
ipv6_mode = address_auto_configuration
ipv6_dns_server =
ipv6_dns_search =
ipv6_default_route_metric = 90
ipv6_ignore_obtained_default_gateway = no
