6.5 Default InfiniBand Bonded IP Addresses
Default InfiniBand bonded IP addresses are assigned to Exalogic compute nodes at the
time of manufacturing. However, you can reconfigure the IP addresses by using the
Oracle Exalogic Configuration Utility. The Oracle Exalogic
Configuration Utility and its associated scripts reconfigure InfiniBand Bonded
IP addresses based on the input you provide to the Exalogic Configurator spreadsheet.
For a list of default InfiniBand Bonded IP addresses, see Default IP Addresses and
Ports.
