Change IP Address on Solaris 10

[Segvoia]

Hello!

How can I run on Solaris 10, the IP address change?

I found/etc/hostname. "interface" (as is the interface name in it) then in /etc/hosts file under this name, the IP address change.

Is it accurate or is there any other way under Solaris 10?


Thank you,

You can change the IP Address by using ifconfig command.

ifconfig xl0 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255

To change the IP in the hosts file :

vi /etc/hosts

To change the IP address :

IP - /etc/hosts
Netmask - /etc/netmasks
Gateway - /etc/defaultrouter
IP (again) - /etc/inet/ipnodes
DNS Servers - /etc/resolv.conf

This will resolve your problem.

To change change IP Address without reboot :

1. Edit ->

/etc/hosts and  /etc/inet/ipnodes files

2. Restart network :

# svcadm restart network/physical

3. To ensure that IP address has been changed,

/etc/netmasks

Note : If you are not using IPV6 just removing the ipnodes file will cause the hosts file to assume it's previous function in setting the IP address.
