Look for the entry that starts ‘dmfe0.’ The parameters that follow
show the IP address, subnet mask, and whether the interface is
‘UP.’ This example output shows that dmfe0 is assigned to IP
address 120.120.12.32, its subnet mask is ffffff00 which
translates to 255.255.255.0, and the interface is UP (active).

Look for the entry that starts ‘dmfe1.’ The parameters that follow
show the IP address, subnet mask, and whether the interface is
‘UP.’ This example output shows that dmfe1 is assigned to IP
address 120.120.12.32.33, its subnet mask is ffffff00 which
translates to 255.255.255.0, and the interface is UP (active).

Look for the entry that starts ‘dmfe0:1.’ This is the machine
logical interface. Notice that the machine logical has ‘attached’
itself to dmfe0 and added a suffix of ‘:1’ creating dmfe0:1. When
a machine logical (or service logical) interface is created, the
V100 will always attempt to ‘attach’ to the first interface, dmfe0.
If dmfe0 were unavailable, or out of service, the machine logical
would then ‘attach’ itself to dmfe1 creating dmfe1:1. The
parameters which follow show the IP address, subnet mask, and
whether the interface is ‘UP.’

This example output shows that dmfe0:1 is assigned to IP
address 120.120.12.34, 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:

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

#

# Internet host table

#

127.0.0.1 localhost

120.120.12.34 rmcsappsvr loghost

120.120.12.32 mcsappsvrdmfe0

120.120.12.33 mcsappsvrdmfe1

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