Set the interface speed. Note that setting it to auto also sets duplex to auto. Setting it to one of the
manual settings (generally
10, 100, or 1000) also sets the duplex to a manual setting which is
determined by querying the interface to find out its current auto-detected state.
[no] interface <ifname> dhcp
Enable or disable use of DHCP on the specified interface. The command gets the IP address and
netmask via DHCP so those settings are ignored. Setting the IP address and netmask disables DHCP
implicitly, though it can also be disabled explicitly using the
no form of this command. It is TBD
which of the other configuration items (DNS servers, default gateway) are overridden by DHCP.
interface <ifname> dhcp renew
Force a restart on the DHCP client for the specified interface.
[no] interface <ifname> shutdown
Enable or disable the specified interface.
[no] interface <ifname> zeroconf
The command may be used to enable or disable use of zero configuration networking (zeroconf)
on the specified interface. This randomly chooses a unique Link Local IPv4 address from the
169.254/16 block. zeroconf is an alternative to DHCP.
show interfaces [<ifname>] configured
show interfaces [<ifname>] brief
Display information about the specified interface, or all interfaces if one is not named.
Either
configured or brief or neither may be specified. With neither, detailed information
about the runtime state of the interface is given. With
brief, abbreviated runtime state, with the
interface statistics excluded, is shown. With
configured, the configuration of the interface is
shown rather than its runtime state.
Network Bond Commands
The network bond command enables you to define two or more network interfaces (data ports)
as a single logical address called eth0 and to define the mode by which these interfaces are
aggregated together.
network bond eth0 mode [balance-abalance-rr|backup|link-agg|link-agg-
layer2+3|link-agg-layer3+4] interface <ifname> interface <ifname>
The command aggregates two interfaces together as a bonded group called eth0. The interfaces
share the same subnet.
