Ethernet Settings

The network settings displayed on the Ethernet Settings page describe the way your Gateway is configured to communicate with your network. These settings can be changed from the Networking page in the Red Hat Cockpit application. See Red Hat Cockpit for more information. The Gateway supports the use of multiple network interface controllers (NICs) and allows you to specify the primary and secondary IP address for the UI service.

 

Only IPv4 addresses are valid for use within the UI service. Link Local addresses are not supported.

Selecting an IP Address for the UI Service

To select the IP address of the UI service:

  1. From the System Center Home page, click System Settings > Ethernet Settings to display the Ethernet Settings page.
  2. In the Task Panel on the left, click Change IP Address for the UI Service to specify the primary IP address, or Change Secondary IP Address for the UI Service to specify the secondary IP address.
  3. Select an alternative IP address from the drop-down list.
  If you attempt to change the IP address for the UI service and you receive the warning that there are no un-allocated IP addresses, you must first define addresses in Red Hat Cockpit.

Network Adapters

Use the Networking page in Red Hat Cockpit to configure network adapters.

  If you are using Cockpit to configure multiple network adapters, note that each adapter must operate on a different subnet.
