Manage Persistent IP Labels or IP Addresses for a Cluster

Use this task to add, view, and edit persistent IP labels or IP addresses for a cluster.

Fields

Persistent IP address
Specify a persistent IP label or address to which the node is to be bound.
Netmask (IPv4)/Prefix length (IPv6)
Specify a netmask for an Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) address or a prefix length for an Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address.
For an IPv4 label or address, you can specify a netmask in the range 1 - 32 and in the n.n.n.n format, where n is a valid IP address value in the range 0-255, (for example, 0.0.0.255).
Note: You must specify a netmask for an IPv4 address when the underlying network is IPv6. A specified netmask is ignored when the service IP label, or IP address, and the underlying network are both IPv4.
For an IPv6 label or address, you can specify a prefix length in the range of 1 - 128.
Note: You must specify a prefix length for an IPv6 address when the underlying network is IPv4. A specified prefix length is ignored when the service IP label, or IP address, and the underlying network are both IPv6.
Interface
Displays the name of the network interface that is associated with the communication interface.
Network
Displays the name of the network to which the IP address is to be bound.
