Can someone please provide a proper technique for re-IPing an nvOC 19-1.4 box through SSH?
kk003_telegram has code to to send public ip in case of changed (don't know if you need this feature in case your new ip is dynamic)
Useful, but not necessary - I have access to the routers and can see which IP is being picked up from DHCP.
In case you don't want DHCP here is a guide.
A example for local static ip:
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
.... [clip]
This looked maddeningly like something I'd tried, but I walked through it with yours as a reference and found my
STUPID, STUPID BLUNDER.
Instead of :
auto enp0s31f6
iface enp0s31f6 inet static
I had
auto enp0s31f6 iface enp0s31f6 inet static
Not sure if it stemmed from a copy/paste error of my template, or just a stray accidental backspace or deletion, but I didn't spot it until comparing your text to mine, so, thanks! It's something of a relief to know I wasn't entirely on the wrong track.
I'm also amused that we have the same network interface adapter. Note to others following along: you may have a different interface, like enp4s0 instead of enp0s31f6. You can look yours up with the command
ifconfig.
Moving on....
then stop network manager:
sudo systemctl stop network-manager.service
Remove it from system startup:
sudo systemctl disable network-manager.service
Is that step strictly necessary? I edited the
interfaces file and rebooted the box, and it came up on the desired IP. What does killing
network manager achieve?
Update: I assume you know how to connect to your rigs using ssh and have a well configured router if you are behind one
Yes, I'm fine on that front - but good to mention for others following along.
Thanks, again!
