CloudVision Appliance IP Configuration Chapter 2: Preparation
2.5.2.1 iDRAC IP Address
The iDRAC IP address can be manually configured via the host's bash shell using the racadm tool.
The racadm commands below are sequence dependent and must be entered in the following order.
Step 1 Using the attached terminal and keyboard, log in as user “root” and with default password
“arista”
Step 2 Disable all iDRAC related DHCP configuration
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DHCPEnable 0
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DNSFromDHCP 0
racadm set iDRAC.NIC.DNSDomainFromDHCP 0
Step 3 Configure IP network settings for the iDRAC interface
racadm set iDRAC.NIC.Enable 1
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.Address <iDRAC-IP>
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.Netmask <iDRAC-MASK>
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.Gateway <iDRAC-GW>
Step 4 Configure DNS settings for the iDRAC interface
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DNS1 <iDRAC-DNS1>
racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DNS2 <iDRAC-DNS2>
racadm set iDRAC.NIC.DNSRacName <iDRAC-NAME>
racadm set iDRAC.NIC.DNSDomainName <iDRAC-DOMAIN.NAME>
Step 5 Verify configuration by running:
racadm getSysInfo
2.5.2.2 Host IP Address
The host IP address can be manually configured via the host's bash shell. In order for the settings to
be persistent, the following configuration must be done.
Step 1 Configure network settings by editing the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-devicebr file.
DEVICE=devicebr
NAME=devicebr
TYPE=Bridge
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=<ip address here>
NETMASK=<subnet mask here>
GATEWAY=<gateway ip address here>
DELAY=0
USERCTL=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
Step 2 Configure DNS settings by editing the /etc/resolv.conf file
nameserver <dnsServerIP-1>
nameserver <dnsServerIP-2>
search <domain1> <domain2> …
Step 3 Restart the networking service for the changes to take effect.
service network restart
