Note
If you are connected through ETH0, you will be disconnected at this step. Reconnect on the new IP
address.
3. (Optional) If you have configured ETH0, you can also configure an IP address for ETH1 if you want to
communicate with agents on a different subnet for example, or if you want to access the Management Console
from a different subnet. To configure an IP address for ETH1, type:
0003:network$ ip address init <eth1 IP address>/<subnet mask (e.g., 16 or 24)> dev eth
Example IPv4
0003:network$ ip address init 192.168.10.3/16 dev eth1
Example IPv6
0003:network$ ip address init fa01::3:15:130/64 dev eth1
System Response
WARNING: Changing the network ip address requires server software to be restarted.
Continue? (yes|no) [no]:
Type ‘yes’ to continue with the IP address configuration.
4. Configure the IP address for the default gateway. Type:
0004:network$ ip route add default table main.table dev [eth0 or eth1] via <IP address for
the default gateway>
Example:
0004:network$ ip route add default table main.table dev eth0 via 192.168.1.5
IPv6 Example:
0004:network$ ip route default table main.table dev eth0 via fa01::3:15:120
5. Verify the interface settings. Type:
0005:network$ ip address show
6. Verify the route settings. Type:
0006:network$ ip route show
7. If you are using DNS, set the DNS server for the DSM. Type:
0007:network$ dns dns1 <ip address for dns server 1>
8. If you have a second or third DNS server, set them for the DSM. Type:
0008:network$ dns dns2 <ip address for dns server 2>
9. If you want to set the search domain, type:
0009:network$ dns search <search_domain>
10. Show the DNS settings. Type:
0010:network$ dns show
11. Return to the main menu. Type:
0011:network$ up
Configure a bonded NIC device
This section describes how to aggregate the two NICs on the DSM into a single logical interface to provide load
balancing and/or fault tolerance. The bonded NIC device is called
bond0
.
