We have a server running AIX 7.1, that has 4 network interfaces, but only one (en4) has an IP address configured through smitty tcpip. There other interfaces have information such as gateway and name server set, just no IP address.

Would changing the ip address (and the other information) be the correct procedure or is there another preferred procedure?

Sorry for the simple question, I have just inherited this server and am trying to muddle my way through some things.

Thanks

I'm not sure what problem you're trying to solve? Do you need to change the IP address on the interface that already has an address? Or are you trying to connect the unused interfaces to other networks?

Sorry I should have been clearer.

All of the interfaces, (en0-en4) have one IP address (10.30.1.5) and the same NAMESERVER, Domain Name and default Gateway. I need to know the proper procedure to change this information on all interfaces. It is as simple as updating the information in smitty tcpip, or am I missing something?

Thanks..

Yes, change them with smitty tcpip.
