Setting the Host IP Address
ESX-1320/ESX-1380 Local Management Guide 4-5
4.4 SETTING THE HOST IP ADDRESS
To set the host IP address, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Host IP Address field.
2. Enter the IP address using Decimal Dotted Notation (DDN) format.
For example: 134.141.25.17
3. Press ENTER. If the IP address entered was a valid format, the cursor
returns to the beginning of the Host IP Address field. If the entry was
not valid, the Event Message field displays “INVALID IP ADDRESS
OR FORMAT ENTERED”. Local Management does not alter the
current value and refreshes the Host IP Address field with the previous
value.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command field.
5. Press ENTER. The Event Message field at the top of the screen
displays “SAVED OK”. This message flashes briefly, then the Event
Message line will display “System Reboot in Progress....” Local
Management will be terminated and the screen will freeze while the
ESX resets.
!
CAUTION
Changing the ESX IP address requires a reset of the module.
Local Management will automatically reset the ESX, which will
go through startup operations before bridging will resume.
NOTE
After the ESX resets, the Password screen appears and you
must re-enter Local Management.
