Operating Systems Solaris How to Configure a Static Ip Address Post 302341104 by naw_deepak on Wednesday 5th of August 2009 05:25:41 AM

Hi,

Run the below commands to assign the static IP to your machine:

#dladm show-dev

see the instance name of the ethernet card looks like (bge0, hme0, pcn0.......)

Code:
# ifconfig bge0/hme0/pcn0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

It will assign the above IP address to your machine. To make it permanent so that it could be available after reboot:

Edit the below files:

/etc/inet/hosts
/etc/inet/ipnodes
/etc/hostname.interface

Please revert back to this forum if this doesn't solve your purpose.

Thanks,
Deepak

NAME
netmasks - network mask database SYNOPSIS
/etc/inet/netmasks /etc/netmasks DESCRIPTION
The netmasks file contains network masks used to implement IP subnetting. It supports both standard subnetting as specified in RFC-950 and variable length subnetting as specified in RFC-1519. When using standard subnetting there should be a single line for each network that is subnetted in this file with the network number, any number of SPACE or TAB characters, and the network mask to use on that network. Network numbers and masks may be specified in the conventional IP `.' (dot) notation (like IP host addresses, but with zeroes for the host part). For example, 128.32.0.0 255.255.255.0 can be used to specify that the Class B network 128.32.0.0 should have eight bits of subnet field and eight bits of host field, in addition to the standard sixteen bits in the network field. When using variable length subnetting, the format is identical. However, there should be a line for each subnet with the first field being the subnet and the second field being the netmask that applies to that subnet. The users of the database, such as ifconfig(1M), perform a lookup to find the longest possible matching mask. It is possible to combine the RFC-950 and RFC-1519 form of subnet masks in the net- masks file. For example, 128.32.0.0 255.255.255.0 128.32.27.0 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.16 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.32 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.48 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.64 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.80 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.96 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.112 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.128 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.144 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.160 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.176 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.192 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.208 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.224 255.255.255.240 128.32.27.240 255.255.255.240 128.32.64.0 255.255.255.192 can be used to specify different netmasks in different parts of the 128.32.0.0 Class B network number. Addresses 128.32.27.0 through 128.32.27.255 have a subnet mask with 28 bits in the combined network and subnet fields (often referred to as the subnet field) and 4 bits in the host field. Furthermore, addresses 128.32.64.0 through 128.32.64.63 have a 26 bits in the subnet field. Finally, all other addresses in the range 128.32.0.0 through 128.32.255.255 have a 24 bit subnet field. Invalid entries are ignored. SEE ALSO
