RE: Switching to static network address issues

["Tony Lee (李文富)" <Tony.Lee@quantatw.com>]

Hi there,
I also met an similar issue about switching network address from DHCP to static.
Here is my configuration steps:

1. ipmitool -H 10.10.15.206 -U root -P 0penBmc -I lanplus lan print 2
Set in Progress         : Set Complete
Auth Type Support       : MD5 
Auth Type Enable        : Callback : MD5 
                        : User     : MD5 
                        : Operator : MD5 
                        : Admin    : MD5 
                        : OEM      : MD5 
IP Address Source       : DHCP Address
IP Address              : 10.10.15.206
Subnet Mask             : 255.255.0.0
MAC Address             : 00:00:f7:a0:7f:f2
Default Gateway IP      : 10.10.10.204
802.1q VLAN ID          : Disabled
RMCP+ Cipher Suites     : 3,17
Cipher Suite Priv Max   : Not Available
Bad Password Threshold  : Not Available

2. ipmitool -H 10.10.15.206 -U root -P 0penBmc -I lanplus lan set 2 ipsrc static

3. root@gsj:~# cat /etc/systemd/network/00-bmc-eth1.network
[Match]
Name=eth1
[Network]
LinkLocalAddressing=no
IPv6AcceptRA=false
DHCP=false
Address=fe80::200:f7ff:fea0:7ff2/64
Gateway=10.10.10.204
[DHCP]
ClientIdentifier=mac
UseDNS=true
UseNTP=true
UseHostname=true
SendHostname=true

4. Set static ip
root@gsj:~# ipmitool lan set 2 ipaddr 10.10.9.3 
Setting LAN IP Address to 10.10.9.3

5. root@gsj:~# cat /etc/systemd/network/00-bmc-eth1.network
[Match]
Name=eth1
[Network]
LinkLocalAddressing=no
IPv6AcceptRA=false
DHCP=false
Address=fe80::200:f7ff:fea0:7ff2/64
Gateway=10.10.10.204
[DHCP]
ClientIdentifier=mac
UseDNS=true
UseNTP=true
UseHostname=true
SendHostname=true

But static IP doesn't work.
Is my step wrong?
