NET.CFG Options Reference
Protocol TCPIP Option
IP_ADDRESS ip_address [network_name]
Specifies the IP address for your client workstation.
Parameters and Values
IP_ADDRESS ip_address [network_name]
IP_NETMASK net_mask_address [network_name]
IP_ROUTER ip_address [network_name]
Syntax ip_address ip_address [network_name]
Replace ip_address with the correct address in
dotted notation. If this parameter is missing or is
0.0.0.0, the protocol stack uses BOOTP or Reverse
ARP to determine the IP address.
Replace network_name with a descriptive name
for this network connection. The network name is
used with the BIND, IP_ROUTER, and
IP_NETMASK parameters to distinguish
between the values for each network connection.
The network name is required only if you are
configuring multiple ODI LAN drivers for TCP/
IP.
Default None
Example To set the IP address for your client workstation and
distinguish your connection to the network, you could
place the following lines in your NET.CFG file:
protocol tcpip
bind ne2000 2 finance-net
ip_address 129.47.30.6 finance-net
ip_router 144.52.6.6
ip_netmask 255.255.0.0
