Input

• -d — Enables DHCP for the NIC. It is enabled by default.

• -d6 — Enables AutoConfig for the NIC (default is disabled).

• -s — Enables static IP settings. The IPv4 address, netmask, and gateway must be

Gateway can be specified.

• -o — Enable or disable NIC.

• -m<module> — Must be one of the following values:

– chassis — Default state if -m is not specified

– server–<n>: where n=1–16

– server–<nx>: where n=1–8; x=a–d (lower case)

– switch–<n>: where n=1–6

• -v — VLAN settings has following legal values: no arguments imply remove VLAN

tag, not compatible with server–nx (for example "server–4b") notation

<vlan_id>=between 1 and 4000, 4021 and 4094, inclusive

<vlan_priority>=between 0 and 7, inclusive.

• -p — Disables IPv4(default) or IPv6 protocol.

• -k — Option has following legal values: no arguments imply autonegotiate

<speed>=10, 100 <duplex> =half, full.

• Configuration of Speed= 100 Mbps and duplex= full duplex.

racadm setniccfg -k 100 full

• Configuration of Speed and Duplex to Autonegotiate.

racadm setniccfg -k

• Configuration of VLAN id and priority of a slot or all blades in a sleeve.

racadm setniccfg -i 5 -v 1000 7

• Configuration of CMC to a static IPv6 address.

racadm setniccfg -m chassis -s -6 2001:DB8::2 64 2001:DB8::1

• Configuration of server to use stateless autoconfiguration address.

racadm setniccfg -m server-1 -d -6

• Configuration of VLAN id and priority for a switch.

racadm setniccfg -m switch-1 -v 1000 7

• Removal of VLAN configuration from a switch.
