M4000 / M5000 : How to assign IP address to XSCFU

By admin

To be able to manage (poweron/poweroff) and configure various domain related tasks such as domain creation, domain configuration etc.. we must have to setup XSCF on network. To confgure XSCF networking for the first time, you need to connect the serial port as shown in the diagram below (M5000 server example).

M4000  M5000 XSCF location

M5000 M4000 serial port location

Setting up XSCF networking

Let us see an exmple of network confguration of XSCF on M5000 system. Below are the network settings which we will configure.

Network address 192.168.10.11
Netmask 255.255.255.0
Default gateway 192.168.10.1

1. Set the IP Address and netmask for the interface.

XSCF> setnetwork xscf#0-lan#0 -m 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.11

2. Set the default router

XSCF> setroute -c add -n 0.0.0.0 -m 0.0.0.0 -g 192.168.10.1 xscf#0-lan#0

NOTE: setting -n to 0.0.0.0 and -m 0.0.0.0 will set the default route.

3. Setup SSH for Secure Access

XSCF> setssh -q -y -c enable

4. Apply the changes

XSCF> applynetwork -y

5. Reboot the xscf to make the changes active

XSCF> rebootxscf
