ILOM. What is the difference between ipaddress and pendingipaddress

Hi all,

I would like to configure ILOM to be able to connect to NetMgt from the network. When i connected to LOM from console using #. i am getting -> prompt.
then:

Code:
cd /SP/network
-> show /SP/network    
Targets:    
Properties:       
commitpending = (Cannot show property)        
dhcp_server_ip = none        
ipaddress = (none)        
ipdiscovery = (none)        
ipgateway = (none)        
ipnetmask = (none)        
macaddress = (none)        
pendingipaddress = (none)        
pendingipdiscovery = (none)        
pendingipgateway = (none)        
pendingipnetmask = (none)        
state = disabled    

Commands:        
cd        
set        
show

->

Now I am wondering - what is the difference between
Code:
ipaddress = (none)        
ipdiscovery = (none)        
ipgateway = (none)        
ipnetmask = (none)

and
Code:
pendingipaddress = (none)        
pendingipdiscovery = (none)        
pendingipgateway = (none)        
pendingipnetmask = (none)

In sun docs I red that I have to modify second set (begining from pending*), but can you let me know the difference? And do I need to put state = disabled into enabled state after chaning necessary parameters? And last question - do i need to resetsc after all or there is no need?

Thanks to all,
Roman

pendingip**** is the ip address you wish to set,
ipaddress ist the address that is actual running.

So, you have to set via pendingip... your interface
and then with set commitpendig = true to activate
the new setting. You dont have to reset the complete
ilom.
