racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicIPv4Enable

0

NOTE: The CMC IPv4 addressing is enabled by default.

To enable/disable the CMC IPv6 addressing, type:
racadm config -g cfgIpv6LanNetworking -o cfgIPv6Enable

1

racadm config -g cfgIpv6LanNetworking -o cfgIPv6Enable

0

NOTE: The CMC IPv6 addressing is disabled by default.

By default, for IPv4, the CMC requests and obtains a CMC IP address from the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) server automatically. You can disable the DHCP feature and specify static CMC IP address, gateway, and subnet
mask.
For an IPv4 network, to disable DHCP and specify static CMC IP address, gateway, and subnet mask, type:
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicUseDHCP 0

racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicIpAddress <static IP address>

racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicGateway <static gateway>

racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicNetmask <static subnet mask>

By default, for IPv6, the CMC requests and obtains a CMC IP address from the IPv6 Autoconfiguration mechanism
automatically.
For an IPv6 network, to disable the Autoconfiguration feature and specify a static CMC IPv6 address, gateway, and
prefix length, type:
racadm config -g cfgIPv6LanNetworking -o

cfgIPv6AutoConfig 0

racadm config -g cfgIPv6LanNetworking -o

cfgIPv6Address <IPv6 address>

racadm config -g cfgIPv6LanNetworking -o

cfgIPv6PrefixLength 64

racadm config -g cfgIPv6LanNetworking -o

cfgIPv6Gateway <IPv6 address>

Enabling or Disabling DHCP for the CMC Network Interface Address

When enabled, the CMC’s DHCP for NIC address feature requests and obtains an IP address from the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server automatically. This feature is enabled by default.
You can disable the DHCP for NIC address feature and specify a static IP address, subnet mask, and gateway. For more
information, see

Setting Up Initial Access to CMC

.

Enabling or Disabling DHCP for DNS IP Addresses

By default, the CMC’s DHCP for DNS address feature is disabled. When enabled, this feature obtains the primary and
secondary DNS server addresses from the DHCP server. While using this feature, you do not have to configure static
DNS server IP addresses.
To disable the DHCP for DNS address feature and specify static preferred and alternate DNS server addresses, type:
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o

cfgDNSServersFromDHCP 0

To disable the DHCP for DNS address feature for IPv6 and specify static preferred and alternate DNS server addresses,
type:
racadm config -g cfgIPv6LanNetworking -o

cfgIPv6DNSServersFromDHCP6 0
