Switching to static network address issues

[Troy Lee]

Hi Tony,

Your situation is a bit different.

You'll have 5 seconds window to send all these settings (
ipsrc/ipaddr/defgw ipaddr)  through IPMI at once.
Then the network-manager of OpenBMC will correctly apply you setting
into system.
For example:
  ipmitool -H 10.10.15.206 -U root -P 0penBmc -I lanplus lan set 2 ipsrc static
  ipmitool -H 10.10.15.206 -U root -P 0penBmc -I lanplus lan set 2
ipaddr 10.10.9.3
  ipmitool -H 10.10.15.206 -U root -P 0penBmc -I lanplus lan set 2
netmask 255.255.0.0
  ipmitool -H 10.10.15.206 -U root -P 0penBmc -I lanplus lan set 2
defgw ipaddr 10.10.10.204


Otherwise, it will show the follow error message in journal log, and
it seems not recoverable from in-band IPMI.
  May 16 19:03:59 romulus systemd[1]: Started Network Service.
  May 16 19:03:59 romulus systemd-networkd[1261]: sit0: Could not
acquire IPv4 link-local address: Invalid argument
  May 16 19:04:00 romulus systemd-networkd[1261]: eth0: Could not set
route: Network is unreachable
  May 16 19:04:02 romulus systemd[1]: Starting Hostname Service...
  May 16 19:03:54 romulus ipmid[1169]: Failed to set network data

Hope this helps.

However, we have similar name :)

Thanks,
Troy Lee
