Modifying TCP/IP Components Online

Notes:
  • Changes made to your network using TCP/IP OI commands are in effect only until the next initialization of the network.

  • To make permanent changes to your network, modify your TCP/IP initialization file with a text editor.

The following topics are covered in this subsection:

  • Identifying a local TCP/IP host to the network

  • Assigning IP address or addresses to a network interface

  • Detecting a duplicate IP address on your network

  • Creating a mapping between a TCP/IP host and one or more IP addresses

  • Inquiring on one or more host names

  • Reaching a remote host or other network interface on the same logical host

  • Verifying that packets are received by a remote host
