Reference Guide

Input
• -d — Enables DHCP for the NIC (default is DHCP disabled.)
• -d6 — Enables AutoConfig for the NIC. It is enabled by default.
• -s — Enables static IP settings. The IPv4 address, netmask, and gateway must be specified.
Otherwise, the existing static settings are used. <IPv4Address>, <netmask>, and
<gateway> must be typed as dot-separated strings.
racadm setniccfg -s 192.168.0.120 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1
• -s6 — Enables static IPv6 settings. The IPv6 address, Prefix Length, and the IPv6 Gateway can
be specified.
• -o — Enable or disable NIC.
• -i<slot> — Must be number n, where n=1–16
• -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
<vlanid>=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.
NOTE:
• -o, -k, -p: These options can be specified for chassis only
• -6: Sets static IPv6 addresses(w/ -soption). Enables autoconfig for IPv6(w/-d option)
disables IPv6(w/-p option) can be specified for chassis or servers.
• -v: When performing on a switch, release and renew any DHCP lease on that port for
changes to take effect.
Example
• racadm setniccfg -s 192.168.0.120 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1
• racadm setniccfg -d
• racadm setniccfg -d6
For CMC:
• 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
