Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers How to set server's ip address, router, network mask and set if it is an internal or external ip? Post 302471693 by pludi on Sunday 14th of November 2010 05:43:04 PM

Which OS in which version?

Basically, the server itself doesn't care about "external" or "internal", that type of configuration depends more on the cabling and access restrictions (via firewall and/or VLANs) than on the IP address.

BOOTPARAMD(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					     BOOTPARAMD(8)

NAME
bootparamd -- boot parameter server SYNOPSIS
bootparamd [-ds] [-r router] [-f file] DESCRIPTION
The bootparamd utility is a server process that provides information to diskless(8) clients necessary for booting. It consults the /etc/bootparams file. This version will allow the use of aliases on the hostname in the /etc/bootparams file. The returned hostname to the whoami request done by the booting client will be the name that appears in /etc/bootparams and not the canonical name. In this way you can keep the answer short enough so that machines that cannot handle long hostnames will not fail during boot. OPTIONS
-d Display the debugging information. -s Log the debugging information with syslog(3). -r router The default router (a machine or an IP-address). This defaults to the machine running the server. -f file The file to use as boot parameter file instead of /etc/bootparams. FILES
/etc/bootparams default boot parameter file EXAMPLES
When netbooting diskless SunOS/Xkernel SPARCstations the booted SunOS kernel also broadcasts to the all-0 address. The SunOS kernel hangs until it receives a reply. To accommodate this behaviour add an alias address that responds to an all-0 broadcast. So, add something like 'ifconfig xl0 192.168.200.254 netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast 192.168.200.0 alias' on the relevant network interface on your bootparamd server. The alias address must of course be free for use. SEE ALSO
