When modifying network resources, only elements that have been defined can be modified.
The following elements can be modified:
Network resource name
Label
Comment
Subnet information
Exclusion range of IP addresses
Default gateway
External connection port settings
Only the following operation can be performed for external connection ports. Deleting and changing of external connection ports cannot be performed.
Addition of external connection ports of a chassis attached to the target external network, when one or more external networks exist
If defining multiple elements, they will be modified at the same time.
Define all new information of the settings after modification for external connection port settings.
Define all new information of the settings after modification for IP addresses to exclude.
Note
Network resource types cannot be changed (specification of the Type tag).
Resource pools cannot be changed (specification of the Pool tag). To change to another resource pool, use the rcxadm pool move command.
VLAN IDs cannot be changed (specification of the Vlanid tag).
Admin LAN subnet names cannot be changed (specification of the ManagementLanSubnet tag).
No errors occur in command execution.
The XML definition for modification of each element is shown below.
Example
Modifying network resource names
<Network name="Modified network resource name" /> |
Modifying labels
<Network label="Modified label" /> |
Modifying comments
<Network> <Comment>Modified comments</Comment> </Network> |
Modifying subnet information (when subnet information is not registered in network resources)
<Network> <AddressSet subnet="Modified subnet address" mask="Modified subnet mask" /> </Network> |
Initializing subnet information (when the network resource type is public LAN, and the subnet information is registered)
<Network> <AddressSet /> </Network> |
Do not specify any value in <AddressSet>.
Adding exclusion range of IP addresses (when adding the IP address range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.10 to the existing exclusion range of 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.200)
<Network> <AddressSet> <Exclude> <AddressRange start="192.168.1.100" end="192.168.1.200" /> <AddressRange start="192.168.1.1" end="192.168.1.10" /> </Exclude> </AddressSet> </Network> |
Changing exclusion range of IP addresses (when deleting the IP address range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.10 from the exclusion ranges of 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.200 and 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.10)
<Network> <AddressSet> <Exclude> <AddressRange start="192.168.1.100" end="192.168.1.200" /> </Exclude> </AddressSet> </Network> |
Do not specify a value from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.10.
Initializing the value of exclusion range of IP addresses
<Network> <AddressSet> <Exclude /> </AddressSet> </Network> |
Do not specify any value in <Exclude>.
Modifying the default gateway
<Network> <AddressSet> <DefaultGateway address="Modified default gateway" /> </AddressSet> </Network> |
Initializing the default gateway (This can only be specified when the network resource type is public LAN)
<Network> <AddressSet> <DefaultGateway /> </AddressSet> </Network> |
Do not specify a value in <DefaultGateway>.
Adding external connection ports (when adding external connection port information for an attached chassis (PRIMERGY BX900))
Information before modification | Information after modification | ||
---|---|---|---|
LAN switch blade name | External port number | LAN switch blade name | External port number |
bx600-lan1 | 11 | bx600-lan1 | 11 |
Before the modification
<Network> <ExternalPorts> <NetworkSwitchPort number="11" switch="bx600-lan1"/> <NetworkSwitchPort number="11" switch="bx600-lan2"/> </ExternalPorts> </Network> |
After the modification
<Network> <ExternalPorts> <NetworkSwitchPort number="11" switch="bx600-lan1"/> <NetworkSwitchPort number="11" switch="bx600-lan2"/> <NetworkSwitchPort number="12" switch="bx900-lan1"/> <NetworkSwitchPort number="12" switch="bx900-lan2"/> </ExternalPorts> </Network> |
