3.5.1 Hostname and IPv4 Settings
View basic network properties with the
show
network
command:
>
show network
Current IP values:
IPv4 Enabled:y
Hostname:hostname
IP:192.168.1.9
Netmask:255.255.255.0
DefaultGateway:192.168.1.1
Configured IP values:
IP:192.168.1.9
Mask:255.255.255.0
Gateway:192.168.1.1
NOTE: The For-
tress Mesh Point’s
default IP address is:
192.168.254.254
Current IP values
are those actually in use on the IPv4
network.
Configured IP values are those specified for the
Mesh Point (by factory defaults or an administrator). These
values can differ briefly between your changing IP values and
the new settings taking effect.
IPv4 is enabled by default. If the Mesh Point is installed on a
network that uses IPv6 exclusively, you can disable IPv4. If the
Mesh Point is installed on an IPv4 network, disabling IPv4
prevents you from managing the Mesh Point via IPv4 through
the Mesh Point GUI and SSH. Additionally, all IPv4 services,
(NTP, SNMP, remote audit logging, external authentication
services, etc.) will be disabled. If the Mesh Point’s internal IPv4
DHCP server is enabled, it, too, will be disabled when IPv4 is
disabled.
Other configurable parameters establish the Mesh Point’s
hostname, assign the IPv4 address and subnet mask of the
Mesh Point’s management interface and identify the IPv4
default gateway (or router) for the network on which you are
installing the Mesh Point.
Configure IPv4 network properties for the Fortress Mesh Point
with the
set
network
command, as follows:
# set network
IPv4Enabled[y] (y|n):y
Hostname[ES-00148c081080]:
<hostname>
IPaddress[192.168.1.9]:
<mngmtIPaddr>
Netmask[255.255.255.0]:
<subnetmask>
DefaultGateway[192.168.1.1]:
<dfltGtwy>
Confirm: Save and use this configuration? (n|y): y
[INFO] This operation may take some time....
[OK]
The Mesh Point CLI displays the configurable fields for set
network one at a time. Enter a new value for the field—or
leave the field blank and the setting unchanged—and strike
Enter↵, to display the next field. The final confirmation query
