TMG:Change Management IP Address
From TBwiki
This article explains how to modify the management network interface of TMG800, TMG3200, TMG7800-CTRL (MGMT0) and the controls ports of the TMG7800-CTRL (ETH0, ETH1).
To avoid modification of the configuration files using 'vim' or 'nano', which is not very user friendly.
TelcoBridges created a shell script that simplifies the network configuration of the TMG.
The MGMT0 (for TMG800, TMG3200, TMG7800-CTRL) and ETH0, ETH1 (for TMG7800-CTRL) ports are configured in dhcp by default.
The script will allow you to modify:
- Change IP address of the MGMT0, ETH0 and ETH1 ports
- Change default network interface and/or IP address
- Change DNS
TMG shell command
tbchangeip
Change dhcp to static
This example changes the IP address from DHCP to static IP with no DNS server
- Steps to modify mgmt0 from dhcp to static:
Do you want to modify the network settings (enter 'help' for usage) ?[No] --> yes Do you want to modify mgmt0 ?[No] --> yes Select network mode (dhcp or static) ?[dhcp] --> static Enter IP address ?[] --> 192.168.0.40 Enter network mask ?[] --> 255.255.255.0
- Steps to modify the default gateway address (this is necessary to give an IP address when in static)
Would you like to modify the default gateway address ?[No] --> yes Enter default gateway ip address ?[] --> 192.168.0.1
- Steps to remove the DNS configuration
Would you like to modify the DNS configuration ?[No] --> yes Would you like to reconfigure the DNS (enter 'remove' to erase dns) ?[No] --> remove
- The script will show you the new configuration. Then you can acknowledge those changes.
Do you want to save this new configuration ?[No] --> yes
- You can ask the script to restart the network service to restart to apply the new configuration.
Would you like to restart the network service now ?[No] --> yes
Change static to dhcp
This example changes the IP address from static to DHCP IP with DNS server (1 domain and 2 nameservers)
- Steps to modify mgmt0 from static to dhcp:
Do you want to modify the network settings (enter 'help' for usage) ?[No] --> yes Do you want to modify mgmt0 ?[No] --> yes Select network mode (dhcp or static) ?[static] --> dhcp Select a dhcp name ?[TB006201] --> TB006201
- Steps to modify the default gateway address (you should let the DHCP server give you the gateway address)
Would you like to modify the default gateway address ?[No] --> yes Which network interface do you want to set as default gateway address interface (mgmt0/mgmt1) --> mgmt0 Select the host dhcp name ?[TB006201] --> TB006201
- Steps to configure the DNS (this example will setup 1 search domain and 2 nameservers)
Would you like to modify the DNS configuration ?[No] --> yes Would you like to reconfigure the DNS (enter 'remove' to erase dns) ?[No] --> yes First search domain (enter 'remove' to remove entry) ?[] --> mynetwork.lan Second search domain (enter 'remove' to remove entry) ?[] --> First nameserver ip address (enter 'remove' to remove entry) ?[] --> 192.168.0.10 Second nameserver ip address (enter 'remove' to remove entry) ?[] --> 192.168.0.11 Third nameserver ip address (enter 'remove' to remove entry) ?[] -->
- The script will show you the new configuration. Then you can acknowledge those changes.
Do you want to save this new configuration ?[No] --> yes
- You can ask the script to restart the network service to restart to apply the new configuration.
Would you like to restart the network service now ?[No] --> yes
