VIO IP address
permalink
Hello list...I'm a newbie on VIO AIX. Since smit or smitty are not available there. I found the command:

$ mktcpip -hostname VIO_Server1 -inetaddr 9.3.5.110 -interface en3
-netmask 255.255.255.0 -gateway 9.3.5.41

where ent3 is the Available Shared Ethernet Adapter

Will this command save and change my new IP address, netmask, and gateway values???

Any advice is really appreciate.

Yes the mktcpip will make your address change permanent.

Yes you can access smitty on VIO after entering oem_setup_env - but you are advised to learn the regular VIO command line as this option may be removed at any time by IBM.
