Setting Duplex Lan Configuration - NEC Express5800 Series Installation Manual

Chapter 1 Installing Operating System

2.3.2 Setting Duplex LAN Configuration

Use vndctl command to configure duplex LAN.
Following is an example when configuring the network as shown in <Configuration detail>. For 1G LAN
connector, since the dual network is achieved with eth100600 and eth110600 combined as bond0, and
eth100601 and eth110601 as bond1 at this point, perform only network configuration (step 2 and after).
<Configuration detail>
Slot number: 5
Network interface name (CPU/IO module 0): eth100100
Network interface name (CPU/IO module 1): eth110100
IP address: 192.168.0.101
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
1. Run the following command to construct the network interfaces (eth100100 and eth110100)
installed in slot 5 as the bonding interface.
# vndctl add 5
2. Run the following command to configure the network settings (the parts with * are to be specified by
a user) on the bonding interface that has been constructed. For default gateway, you can omit the
process by pressing the <ENTER> key without specifying anything.
# vndctl config 5
[Virtual Network Setting]
*Boot Protocol? [none/dhcp/bootp] none
*IP address? 192.168.0.101
*Netmask? 255.255.255.0
*Default gateway (IP)? 192.168.0.1
*Are you sure to set it? [y/n] y
DEVICE=bond2
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=192.168.0.101
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
BONDING_OPTS="miimon=100 mode=1"

You must perform this operation as a root user.
Important
•
If you implement configurations on IP address, subnet mask or default gateway
on the bonding interface, you must use the vndctl command. For other network
configuration items, manually configure them by referring to such an online
manual page of the man command.
•
Stop the running interface with the following command before the setup, then go
to Step 2.
# vndctl down <slot number>
