a. If you choose to use a dynamically created IP address (use DHCP to retrieve
the network setting), set pendingipdiscovery to dhcp.
a. If you choose to configure a static IP configuration. set the parameters
pendingipdiscovery, pendingipaddress, pendingipgateway, and
pendingipnetmask as follows.
i. Set the service processor to accept a static IP address.
ii. Set the IP address for the service processor.
iii. Set the IP address for the service processor gateway.
iv. Set the netmask for the service processor.
This example uses 255.255.255.0 to set the netmask. Your network
environment subnet might require a different netmask. Use a netmask number
most appropriate to your environment.
4. Use the show /SP/network command to verify that the parameters were set
correctly.
CODE EXAMPLE 3-1 shows parameters that have been set to convert a service
processor from a dhcp configuration to a static configuration
-> set /SP/network pendingipdiscovery=dhcp
Set 'pendingipdiscovery' to 'dhcp'
-> set /SP/network pendingipdiscovery=static
Set 'pendingipdiscovery' to 'static'
-> set /SP/network pendingipaddress=service-processor-IPaddr
Set 'pendingipaddress' to 'service-processor-IPaddr'
-> set /SP/network pendingipgateway=gateway-IPaddr
Set 'pendingipgateway' to 'gateway-IPaddr'
-> set /SP/network pendingipnetmask=255.255.255.0
Set 'pendingipnetmask' to '255.255.255.0'
