Parameters

-ip ipv4_address ipv6_address
(Optional) Specifies the Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) address or Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) for system Ethernet port 1.
-prefix subnet_prefix
(Optional) Specifies the IPv4 or IPv6 prefix for system Ethernet port 1.
-gw ipv4_address ipv6_address
(Optional) Specifies the IPv4 or IPv6 gateway for system Ethernet port 1.
-vlan vlan_id
(Optional) Specifies the VLAN ID for a IPv4 or IPv6 address.
ip_address_id
(Required) Specifies the row index of IP address to be changed from lsip command output.

Description

This command modifies IP configuration parameters for the system.

If the system IP address is changed, the open command-line shell closes during the processing of the command. You must reconnect to the new IP address if connected through that port.

To modify an IP address, issue the chip command and list the IP address of the system by issuing the lsip command.

An invocation example

The following example uses specific -ip, -gw, and -mask parameters.

chip -ip 9.122.123.193 -prefix 24 -gw 9.122.123.1  -vlan 100 2 
chip -ip 9.122.123.193 -prefix 24 2

The resulting output:

lsip
id node_id node_name port_id portset_id portset_name       IP_address       prefix vlan gateway        owner_id owner_name
0                    1       72         SystemManagement   192.168.1.52     24          192.168.1.1
