BMC - How to change IP-Address ?

Hi,

we use a FAS2040 (8.1.1 7-Mode) and have to change the IP-address and the gateway on the BMC.

Old:

bmc shell -> bmc config

ipaddr :172.18.116.67

netmask :255.255.255.0

gateway :172.18.116.1

mac :00:a0:98:29:fd:b9

dhcp :off

link :up

autoneg :enabled

speed :100

duplex :full

When I'm on the BMC I'm using the following command (to set the new gateway and ip-address):

bmc shell -> bmc config gateway 172.18.104.1 ipaddr 172.18.104.32

... and - no changes (and no errors).

What's wrong?

Thank you.

use the bmc setup command from Data OnTap (not from the BMC console)
