The set network command specifies an address for a NIOS appliance so that it can join a network, with the option of joining a Grid. You can configure either IPv4 address, IPv6 address, or both for a NIOS appliance. If the appliance is configured with an IPv6 address, it can join a Grid using the IPv6 address of the Grid Master. Use the show network command to view the network settings.
set network supports configuration of both IPv4 and IPv6 interface addresses.

Syntax

After configuring the network settings, you cannot change the type of network connectivity of the appliance through CLI. For example, if the appliance is configured in IPv4-only mode, then you can change only the IPv4 interface settings through CLI. But the type of network connectivity for the appliance can be changed through GUI.
