IP address assignment in ONIE

By default, DHCP is enabled in ONIE. If your network has DHCP configured, ONIE gets the valid IP address for the management
port using DHCP, as shown.
Info: Using eth0 MAC address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Info: Using eth1 MAC address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Info: eth0: Checking link... up.
Info: Trying DHCPv4 on interface: eth0
ONIE: Using DHCPv4 addr: eth0: xx.xx.xxx.xx / xxx.xxx.xxx.x
You can manually assign an IP address.
1. Wait for ONIE to complete a DHCP timeout and return to the prompt.
2. Wait for ONIE to assign a random default IP address. This address may not be valid for your network.
3. Enter the ifconfig command to assign a valid IP address.
This command is not persistent. After you reboot, you must reconfigure the IP address.
** Rescue Mode Enabled ** ONIE:/ #
ONIE:/ # ifconfig eth0 xx.xx.xxx.xxx/xx up
