● racadm setniccfg [-i <slot>] -v [<vlan_id> <vlan_priority>]
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 specified.
Otherwise, the existing static settings are used. <ipaddress>, <netmask>, and <gateway> must
be typed as dot-separated strings.
racadm setniccfg -s 192.168.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.0
● -s6 — Enables static IPv6 settings. The IPv6 address, Prefix Length, and the IPv6 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.
NOTE:
● -o, -k, -p: These options can be specified for chassis only
● -6: Sets static IPv6 addresses (with -soption). Enables autoconfig for IPv6 (with-d option)
disables IPv6 (with-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
● To Configure static IPv4 address for iDRAC NIC
racadm setniccfg -s 192.168.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.0
Static IP configuration enabled and modified successfully
● Configure DHCP mode for iDRAC IPv4
racadm setniccfg -d
DHCP is now ENABLED
● Configure DHCP mode for iDRAC IPv6
racadm setniccfg -d6
DHCP6 is now ENABLED
● 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
