Run the
ifconfig
command to configure the
network interface on the IP address Linux assigned to the SmartLynq+ Module. Linux
assigns the IP address as 10.0.0.2. Run ifconfig
to
view the currently active network interfaces on this system. For
example:eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr D7:45:89:22:88:97
inet addr:172.19.3.148 Bcast:172.19.3.255 Mask:255.255.252.0 UP BROADCAST

If none of the interface names have an internet address that is part of
the protocol address family that covers the assigned SmartLynq+ Module address, use
ifconfig
to configure a new interface.
In the preceding example, the Linux system has two interfaces defined:
eth0
and lo
. Neither
interface has an internet address format of 10.0.x.x that includes the address 10.0.0.2
assigned to SmartLynq+ Module. Set up the interface by running ifconfig
with the following
arguments:sudo ifconfig eth1 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.0.0
Running
ifconfig
again shows the new
interface:eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr D7:45:89:22:88:97
