addr

The addr command sets and displays several RAC operating parameters
(EEPROM values) relevant to IP network addressing:
• Internet address
• Subnet mask
• Broadcast address
• Preferred load host address
• Preferred dump host address
• Load/dump gateway address
• Type of IP packet encapsulation
• Load broadcast
The addr -d command displays the RAC's ROM-resident Ethernet
address in hexadecimal notation. (For a description of IP addresses, refer
to Managing Remote Access Concentrators Using Command Line
Interfaces.) The command syntax is:
addr [–d]
If you enter the addr command without the –d argument, you will be
prompted for each IP address. Enter IP addresses using standard dotted-
decimal notation.
The addr –d command displays the RAC's Ethernet address, IP address,
subnet mask, broadcast address, preferred load host address, preferred
dump host address, load/dump gateway address, IP encapsulation type,
and load broadcast flag. The addr -d command cannot be used to make
changes to any of the displayed parameters.
