Configure The Host Files - Sun Microsystems GigabitEthernet PCI Adapter User Manual

10. When you have finished loading the software, unmount the CD-ROM directory:
# cd /
# eject /cdrom
If the automounter fails to flush a previous mount point, you may see the following
directory:
/cdrom/sungige_1_1#1
If this should happen, remove the empty directory.
# rmdir /cdrom/sungige_1_1#1

Configure the Host Files

1. Enter echo <interface-name>/etc/hostname.vge0.
The variable <interface-name> represents the name to be associated with the first
gigabit ethernet adapter (for example,
echo myhostname-ge0 /etc/hostname.vge0)
2. Assign the IP address by using vi or a similar text editor to edit the /etc/hosts
file.
For the example in Step 1, to assign the IP address 192.170.87.32 to the interface
myhostname-ge0, you would add the following entry to your /etc/hosts file:
192.170.87.32 myhostname-ge0
3. Reboot your system.
# reboot -- -r
