ifconfig [网络设备][down up -allmulti -arp -promisc][add<地址>][del<地址>][<hw<网络设备类型><硬件地址>][io_addr<I/O地址>][irq<IRQ地址>][media<网络媒介类型>][mem_start<内存地址>][metric<数目>][mtu<字节>][netmask<子网掩码>][tunnel<地址>][-broadcast<地址>][-pointopoint<地址>][IP地址]

Parameter Description:

  • add <address> Sets the IP address of the network device IPv6.
  • del <address> Remove network device IPv6 IP address.
  • Close down the specified network device.
  • <Hw <network device type> <hardware address> Set the type of network equipment and hardware address.
  • io_addr <I / O address> Set the network device I / O address.
  • irq <IRQ address> Sets the network device IRQ.
  • media <media network type> set network device media types.
  • mem_start <memory address> Set the start address in main memory network equipment occupied.
  • metric <number> is specified in the calculation of the packet forwarding number, the number to be added.
  • mtu <bytes> Sets the network device MTU.
  • netmask <Subnet Mask> Set subnet mask of network equipment.
  • tunnel <address> to establish a communication tunnel between IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
  • Start up a specified network device.
  • -broadcast <address> will be sent to the specified address as the packet broadcast packets to deal with.
  • -pointopoint network equipment <address> with the specified address to establish a direct connection, this model has a security function.
  • -promisc shut down or start promiscuous mode specified network device.
  • [IP address] Specifies the IP address of the network device.
  • Name [network equipment] specified network device.

Start Close the specified NIC 

# ifconfig eth0 down
# ifconfig eth0 up

Provision and delete IPv6 address for the network card 

# ifconfig eth0 add 33ffe:3240:800:1005::2/ 64 //为网卡诶之IPv6地址

# ifconfig eth0 del 33ffe:3240:800:1005::2/ 64 //为网卡删除IPv6地址

Modify the MAC address with ifconfig 

# ifconfig eth0 down //关闭网卡
# ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:AA:BB:CC:DD:EE //修改MAC地址
# ifconfig eth0 up //启动网卡
# ifconfig eth1 hw ether 00:1D:1C:1D:1E //关闭网卡并修改MAC地址 
# ifconfig eth1 up //启动网卡

Configure the IP address 

# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.56 
//给eth0网卡配置IP地址
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.56 netmask 255.255.255.0 
// 给eth0网卡配置IP地址,并加上子掩码
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.56 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255
// 给eth0网卡配置IP地址,加上子掩码,加上个广播地址

Enable and disable the ARP protocol 

# ifconfig eth0 arp  //开启
# ifconfig eth0 -arp  //关闭

Sets the maximum transmission unit 

# ifconfig eth0 mtu 1500 
//设置能通过的最大数据包大小为 1500 bytes
