Topic: Configuration - Changing IP address

Question:

Can an IP address be changed without having to re-install TCPware?

Answer:

The following outlines how to change an IP address.

1. Before changing the address by running CNFNET you should make a copy of your TCPPWARE_CONFIGURE.COM and your HOSTS. file.

2. Shutdown TCPware. ($@TCPWARE:SHUTNET)

3. Execute the CNFNET procedure and change your IP address. ($@TCPWARE:CNFNET TCP)

4. If necessary make changes to your HOSTS. file and any changes needed in DNS.

5. Start TCPware. ($@TCPWARE:STARTNET)
