 |
|
I have an interface that has the IP address 192.168.10.1/24. I wanted to change it to 192.168.10.10/24
| Code: |
nmcli connection edit eth1-static
nmcli> print ipv4.addresses
ipv4.addresses: 192.168.10.1/24
nmcli> set ipv4.addresses 192.168.10.10/24
nmcli> print ipv4.addresses
ipv4.addresses: 192.168.10.1/24, 192.168.10.10/24
|
My problem ist that the set command just appended the new address to ipv4.addresses. I cannot find a way to remove entries from the list, I can only add new elements to the list. And even calling set ipv4.address 192.168.10.10/24 the IP is added to the list instead of replacing it.
How can you do that in the edit mode? I'm aware that I can do that with nmcli conn mod eth1-static ipv4.addresses "192.168.10.10/24" but like I said, this is not the case in the edit mode.

Try
| Code: |
nmcli con mod eth1-static ip4 192.168.10.10/24
or if not working
nmcli con mod eth1-static ipv4.address 192.168.10.10/24
#### INITIALLY IP IS ASSIGNED BY IP4 AND AND WHEN MOD-ING BY IPV4.ADDRESS SAME GOES WITH IP(V)6
|
If you still get two addresses try
| Code: |
nmcli con mod eth1-static -ipv4.address <ip-to-remove/24>
|
In the unlikely case that there is a chaos going on try
| Code: |
nmcli con del eth1-static #### CAUTION YOU WILL BRIEFLY LOOSE CONNECTIVITY
nmcli con add type ethernet con-name eth1-static ifname <physical-iface-name> ip4 192.168.10.10/24 gw4 <router-ip-no-cidr>
nmcli con mod eth1-static ipv4.dns <dns-ip-no-cidr> ipv4.method manual
nmcli con up eth1-static

Just saw this.
Why use edit mode then?
Maybe
| Code: |
nmcli>remove ipv4.addresses <ip-to-remove/24>
nmcli>save
|

Again why choose a more complicated approach over a simpler one?
