Setting the network parameters
Via the
netpar -x
command, you can retrieve a list of the current network parameters (e.g. the IP
address and port), which you can then change.
Confirm values (e.g. Gateway, Netmask, etc.) that you do not wish to change by pressing the
Enter
key.
When your changes are complete, a list of the current network parameters is displayed after a few
seconds and then the connection to the controller is terminated.
