SBC Management IP configuration
This article explains how to modify the management network interface of ProSBC
ProSBC will come with a default mgmt0 port after installation. This interface needs to be configured to gain access to the web portal. You can use the tbchangeip command to:
Change the IP address, subnet and gateway of the management port, or select DHCP.
Change the Domain name servers (DNS) used by the internal host (Used for updating Linux packages or other).
Command
Type this command from the console:
tbchangeip
Follow the instructions.
Modify static IP address
This example changes the IP address to a static address with no DNS server
Steps to modify mgmt0 from dhcp to static:
Do you want to modify the network settings (enter 'help' for usage) ?[No] --> yes
Do you want to modify mgmt0 ?[No] --> yes
Select network mode (dhcp or static) ?[dhcp] --> static
Enter IP address ?[] --> 10.0.0.126
Enter network mask ?[] --> 255.255.255.0
Steps to modify the default gateway address (this is necessary to assign an IP address when in static mode.)
Would you like to modify the default gateway address ?[No] --> yes
Enter default gateway ip address ?[] --> 10.0.0.1
Steps to remove the DNS configuration
Would you like to modify the DNS configuration ?[No] --> yes
Would you like to reconfigure the DNS (enter 'remove' to erase dns) ?[No] --> remove
The script will show you the new configuration. Then you can acknowledge the changes.
Do you want to save this new configuration ?[No] --> yes
You can ask the script to restart the network service and apply the new configuration.
Would you like to restart the network service now ?[No] --> yes
NOTE: For 1+1 systems or when using external transcoding devices, some internal networks are configured. Make sure there is no IP conflict with your management netwokr when configuring these.
