How do I set or reset the IP address from the CLI?

After networking has been activated, Lighthouse is configured with two default network connections on its primary network interface:

Name	Config Location	IP Address
default-conn-1	system.net.conns[0]	192.168.0.1/24
default-conn-2	system.net.conns[1]	Auto assigned, DHCP client

In the case where there is no DHCP server and/or you are unable to access these addresses, you may set an initial IP address from the VGA console:

• Using your virtualization tools, open a VGA console to Lighthouse
• Login to the Lighthouse CLI as the root user
• Start the configuration REPL with:

ogconfig-cli

• Run these commands to set the static IP address, replacing the example addresses with your own:

set system.net.conns[0].static.address '192.168.123.100'
set system.net.conns[0].static.netmask '255.255.255.0'
set system.net.conns[0].static.gateway '192.168.123.1'
set system.net.conns[0].static.dns1 '8.8.8.8'
set system.net.conns[0].enabled true

• Optionally disable the default DHCP client with:

set system.net.conns[1].enabled false

• Apply configuration and exit the REPL with:

push
exit

Note: If the address is not assigned, run ifconfig net1. If this returns a Device not found error, the virtual NIC has not been detected – please check your VM settings.
