The following section outlines steps to add a new network interface to your service point.
  1. Log in to the service point using the operations user and the password provided when configuring the service point in the Edge CI.
  2. Create a new network interface using the following command:
    nic eth<n> create -ipv4 <ip_address_cidr> -gw4 <gateway_ip>
    Where the parameters are as follows:
    • eth<n>—the name of the ethernet interface that you would like to configure. By default, when configuring the IP address in the Edge CI for provisioning the service point, the IP address is associated to the eth0 interface. When adding an interface using the nic command line tool, the ethernet interface should start from eth1 and greater.
    • -ipv4 <ip_address_cidr>—the IP address that you would like to assign to the new interface, in CIDR format. For example, 192.168.1.10/24
    • -gw4 <gateway_ip>—the IP address of the default gateway. For example, 192.168.1.1
Example
nic eth2 create -ipv4 192.168.1.10/24 -gw4 192.168.1.1
