UNIX Solaris

Hi all!

After I assigned the IP address to one machine V890, ce0 NIC, with 190.10.10.66, subnetmask is 255.255.0.0 successfully, however, when I pinged to the other machine 190.10.10.68, I did not receviced any reply message.

Would you like to guide me?

Thank you very much!

What is the result of the command: ifconfig -a

if you are on solaris 10 please post also the output of

dladm show-dev
and
dladm show-link

You need to plumb your card first
ifconfig ce0 plumb
after, configure your ip address
ifconfig ce0 190.10.10.66/16 up
try to ping your ip from the same system
ping 190.10.10.66
and try to ping another system after.

Look if your have 2 nic on the system.

Thank you, but I did not ping to the other system.
This is the result from plumb:

#ifconfig ce0 plumb
ifconfig : SIOCSLIFNAME for ip : ce0 : already exists 
#ifconfig ce0 190.10.10.66/16 up
#ping 190.10.10.68
ICMP Host Unreachable from gateway database (190.10.10.66)
...

database is my host name

Thank you, I am using Solaris 10 on V890 Sparc, and the result from your command are:

#dladm show-dev
ge0       link:unknown   speed:0    Mbps   duplex:unknown
eri0       link:unknown   speed:0    Mbps   duplex:unknown
ce0       link:unknown   speed:0    Mbps   duplex:unknown


#dladm show-link
ge0       type:legacy     mtu:1800      device:ge0
eri0       type:legacy     mtu:1800      device:eri0
ce0       type:legacy     mtu:1800      device:ce0

The NIC I already use is ce0.

Thank again!

the ifconfig -a output is also needed.

Thanks for all!

I had a simple mistake: Put the wrong NIC - port. :smiley:
