set

The command sets the value(s) of the last parameter. When multiple parameters are specified in
set
one command, either all are set successfully or none of the values are changed.
The command is used to set an existing value, in contrast to add command which is used to add
set
something to the parameter tree. For example, this set command is used to specify the IP address
for an Ethernet interface which already is identified by the eth0 parameter in the parameter tree: set
network interface eth0 address <IPaddress>. In contrast, new hosts need to be added with the add
command before their parameters can be specified; add network hosts <IPaddress> makes an entry
for a host with the specified IP address in the hosts list. Parameters for this new host can then be
changed with the set command: set network hosts <IPaddress> name <hostname>.
