Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Configuring Solaris 10 SPARC for internet ready connection Post 303035027 by alphatron150 on Saturday 11th of May 2019 06:59:19 AM

Hi there. thanks for your reply.


To clarify the situation I have a WIFI extender plugged into the domestic 240v mains wall socket. The device itself has been configured to be a bridge between my domestic ISP modem/router and any device that uses wifi. The wifi extender has 2 female RJ45 ethernet sockets on the deive to allow ethernet connection between the Wifi extender and the proposed machine (in this case my SPARC server. The Wifi extender connects to my Router box via wifi.


WhenI first installed Solaris 10 I had to install the ethernet port

Please wrap all code, files/data, input & output/errors in CODE tags.
It makes it easier to read and preserves multiple spaces for indenting or fixed-width data.


Code:
(ifconfig e1000g0 plumb up)


When this was done there was no IP address assigned to the e1000g0 device. So I had to assign an IP address that my router box could accept


Code:
ifconfig 192.168.0.22 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast + up




I shall rectify the /etc/hosts and the /etc/hostname.e1000g0 files. If this process fails I shall return back to you


I hope I have clarified myself more with this post!

br2684ctl(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      br2684ctl(8)

NAME
br2684ctl - RFC1483/2684 Bridge Daemon SYNOPSIS
br2684ctl [ -b ] [[ -c n ] [ -e 0|1 ] [ -p 0|1 ] [ -s sndbuf ] [ -a [itf].vpi.vci ]] ... PARAMETERS
-a [itf].vpi.vci ATM PVC number, VPI and VCI. (Required) -b Puts the process in the background. -c n br2684 interface number such as 0, 1, ... (Required) -e 0|1 Encapsulation method: 0=LLC, 1=VC mux (the default is 0 or LLC) -p 0|1 Payload method: 0=Routed, 1=Bridged (the default is 1 or Bridged) -s sndbuf Send buffer size. Default is 8192. DESCRIPTION
br2684ctl handles RFC1483/2684 bridged PDUs. This is most often used in ADSL scenarios where usually the subscribers' ethernet traffic is encapsulated in ATM AAL5 (by bridging ADSL modems) according to RFC2684. The subscriber-side ADSL modem can be external with an ethernet connector or an internal ADSL card in a PC. RFC1483 has been obsoleted by RFC2684. For example it is possible to set up your Linux box to handle several ATM PVC's with bridged-1483 (sometimes referred as SNAP) encapsula- tion. The Linux network stack might provide DHCP, IP masquerading, IP firewall services or bridge the Ethernet frames just like it had several ethernet interfaces. In fact it can have several (logical) ethernet interfaces, where ATM is just used as a carrier. USAGE
br2684ctl creates a new network interface named nas[n] which is bound to an specific ATM PVC. It requires two mandatory arguments: -c, the interface number, and -a, the ATM PVC. It should be noted that the order of the command arguments matter; -c should be followed by -a. You can create as many interfaces as necessary in one go, just make a long command line ;) For example, following command will create a nas0 interface which uses the ATM PVC with VPI=0 and VCI=401. You need to configure the PVC connection 0.401 on the ATM switch manually. % br2684ctl -c 0 -a 0.401 The command will only create a new interface nas0. Next step is to assign an IP address and netmask to the interface nas0 using the ifcon- fig command. Using ifconfig, you can also assign a Ethernet MAC address to the interface nas0, if necessary. % ifconfig nas0 192.168.2.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 Messages are logged to the LOCAL2 syslog facility.
