Look for the entry that starts with ‘bge1.’ The parameters that
follow show the IP address, subnet mask, and whether the
interface is ‘UP.’ This example output shows that bge1 is
assigned to IP address 120.120.13.24, its subnet mask is ffffff00
which translates to 255.255.255.0, and the interface is UP
(active).

5

Look for the entry that starts with ‘bge0:1.’ This is the machine
logical interface. Notice that the machine logical has ‘attached’
itself to bge0 and added a suffix of ‘:1’ creating bge0:1. When a
machine logical (or service logical) interface is created, the V210
will always attempt to ‘attach’ to the first interface, bge0. If bge0
were unavailable, or out of service, the machine logical would
then ‘attach’ itself to bge1 creating bge1:1. The parameters that
follow show the IP address, subnet mask, and whether the
interface is ‘UP.’

This example output shows that bge0:1 is assigned to IP
address 120.120.13.25, its subnet mask is ffffff00, which
translates to 255.255.255.0, and the interface is UP (active).

Verify that the hosts file is correct:

[@microapp]/export/home/nortel:=> cat /etc/hosts

#

# Internet host table

#

127.0.0.1 localhost

120.120.13.25 microapp loghost

120.120.13.23 microappbge0

120.120.13.24 microappbge1

The first 120 address should reflect your machine logical IP
address in addition to the hostname and the ‘loghost’ tag.

The second 120 address should reflect the bge0 interface
followed by the hostname concatenated with ‘bge0.’

The third 120 address should reflect the bge1 interface followed
by the hostname concatenated with ‘bge1.’

7

Verify the defaultroute file:

[@microapp]/export/home/nortel:=> cat /etc/defaultrouter

120.120.13.1
