January 23, 20197 yr I recently installed a mellanox x10 board in my server and disabled the bonded rj45 ports that I was using previously. eth1 is ported down but that doesn’t seem to be possible with eth0. I’m now assigning the same IP to the mellanox card that the bonded ports were using previously and everything seems to be working properly via that IP (webUI, dockers, shares, etc) but console shows the IP assigned to eth0. Is this just some oddity with bios? Not sure if this is a problem or not? Edited January 24, 20197 yr by wgstarks
January 24, 20197 yr Community Expert I just looked at one on my servers and I don't have an IPv6 address either. In the back of my mind, I seem to recall that the router has to be configured to hand out IPv6 addresses. (I know that my IPS is still using IPv4 addresses on the WLAN side of my modem.) If you want to know what the IPv6 address is from your IPv4 address, google ipv4 address translation to ipv6 Yours is 0:0:0:0:0:ffff:a00:19f
January 24, 20197 yr Author I wasn’t very accurate when I drew the circle. It’s supposed to be around the ipv4 address which is for eth0. Want to be sure that that address isn’t actually being used by the server and it’s using eth2 instead.
January 24, 20197 yr Server always uses eth0 as its management interface. Ps. if you want a different interface to act as eth0, go to Network Settings -> Interface rules and change the interface assignments there. Edited January 24, 20197 yr by bonienl

Edited 14 hours ago by bonienl Not sure how to do this? Do I just delete the table entries for eth0? Nevermind, got it. It's the section right above the routing tables. Don't know why I thought that was for spoofing the mac address. DUH Edited January 24, 20197 yr by wgstarks
