Enclosure Bay IP Addressing commands 65
o
The <IP address> and <netmask> must be in the form ###.###.###.###, where each ###
ranges from 0 to 255.
o Do not use the 169.254.x.x range when configuring EBIPA-assigned addresses, as this network
address range is reserved for use by the Onboard Administrator.
o The <domain name> is a string containing letters (a–z, A–Z), digits (0–9), or a dash (-).
The OA accepts domain name character strings subject to the following constraints:
— The string must be between 1 and 255 characters in length.
— The characters are case insensitive.
— The first character of the domain name must be alphanumeric, while the last character can be
either alphanumeric or a period.
— The characters between the first and last character can be alphanumeric, dash or period.
— If one or more periods appear in the name, they are used to delimit labels.
— Labels are between 1 and 63 characters long and begin and end with an alphanumeric
character.
— The last label is referred as the top-level domain and cannot consist of all numeric characters.
SET EBIPAV6 INTERCONNECT
• Command:
SET EBIPAV6 INTERCONNECT {<IPv6 address>{/prefix length}} | {DOMAIN
<domain>} {GATEWAY <gateway>} | [ ALL | <bay number> [{- | ,} <bay number>]]
• Description:
Sets EBIPA IPv6 address settings for interconnect bays. If the bay number is not specified, the settings
will apply to all interconnects. You can specify an IPv6 fixed address for a specific bay, or you can
specify the starting IPv6 fixed address for a range of bays, where EBIPA automatically assigns
consecutive addresses to the bays in the range, starting with the specified address. (See the following
example.) You can specify a domain name for a specific bay or range of bays.
NOTE: The Onboard Administrator documentation refers to EBIPA IP addresses as "fixed IP
addresses" or "fixed DHCP addresses," meaning that each of these addresses is an IP address
permanently associated with a specific bay number independent of the actual device currently
attached to the bay.
To clear the IPv6 address, use the keyword NONE. For example, to clear the address for bay 3, specify
the following command:
SET EBIPAV6 INTERCONNECT NONE 3
• Access level/Bay level:
OA administrator, OA operator
• Restrictions:
o The <IPv6 address> must be in the form
####:####:####:####:####:####:####:####/###, where #### ranges from 0 to FFFF. A
compressed version of the same IPv6 address is also supported.
