Temporary IP
1. Check the available physical port. Let say, port 1 is available, so plug in the LAN cable into the port 1.
2. Check the existing network so that the new IP is not clash with the old IP.
# ifconfig -a lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index 1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 bge0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2 inet 192.168.1.10 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.1 ether X:X:XX:XX:XX:XX
3. So, type this command to add the new IP.
# ifconfig bge1 plumb
# ifconfig bge1 192.168.1.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
# route add default 192.168.1.1
# ifconfig –a lo0: flags=1000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 8232 index 1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 bge0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2 inet 192.168.1.10 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.1 ether X:X:XX:XX:XX:XX bge1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2 inet 192.168.1.20 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.1 ether x:x:xx:xx:xx:xx
