Hi,

how to assign a fixed, permanent IP address to the physical ETH port Channel A or B of E3579, which is connected to 10GbE/100MbE Port 1. (1st black connector from the left.)
How is the network interface name of this connection?
After rebooting AGX drive, the IP address shall stay consistent.
I like to have one channel on fixed IP address and the 2nd channel on DHCP.

This page shows the Ethernet Network Topology in AV Configuration:

Is this page also available for OS 5.2?
How to identify network interface names of all connections?

Thanks for your help!

Dear @andreas.schwager,
Could you please tell more details about your use case and why you looking static IP over this path?

Dear Krishna,

we are operating AGX drive in an highly performances optimized environment. There are more than 50 sensors contributing to the total result. GMSL cameras connected to AGX drive deliver some of the sensor data. Camera data are pre-processed inside AGX drive and forward to other computers. In order to run the total network as reliable and reproductive than possible we do not have a DHCP Server. Only fixed IP addresses exist. Subnets guarantee to isolate each sensor data stream from others.

We have to remote access AGX drive (via ssh) and like to have the interfaces persistent.

Do this answer your question?

Best Regards

Andreas

Does anyone knows a hint how to fix the IP addresses?

Thanks!

Dear all,

I managed to set a fixed IP address and MTU=9000 to the RJ45 10GbE plug on the back panel.
This is the enp4s0 interface.

cat /etc/systemd/network/99-nv_enps0_default.network
[Match]
Name=en[pP]*s0

[Network]
Address=192.168.11.150/24

[Link]
MTUBytes=9000

[DHCP]
SendHostname=false
ClientIdentifier=mac

and

sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

How to to do the same (but different IP Address) with the 2nd (and 3rd reserved) RJ45 10GbE plug?
Is this the enP4p1s0 interface?

Thanks for your reply

Could you elaborate which connectors you are asking? If not exact the same, please create a new topic linked to this one. Thanks.
