7.2.1 Run netconfig
After you establish a connection to the SCS using your network, you may want to
change the IP address setting of the SCS to the desired address on your network, using
netconfig
.
The
netconfig
script is a self-prompting program to set up your system’s net-
work information. It supports DHCP/BOOTP setup, or static addressing.
Use the space bar to select / deselect a value (e.g., DHCP). Use the arrow keys
to move up and down between the entry fields.
Note
Use of a static IP address is recommended with the SCS.
You will need the following information before running
netconfig
:
•
Using BOOTP/DHCP (yes/no)? If No, you need the following:
•
IP Address
•
Net Mask
•
Default Gateway
•
Primary Nameserver
You can add the secondary and tertiary nameservers (if required) by editing your
resolv.conf
file at a later time. After entering the requested information, you are
returned to the root prompt.
