The
ipadm command is a stable replacement for
the
ifconfig(1M) and
ndd(1M) commands. It is used to create IP
interfaces and to configure IP addresses on those interfaces. It is also used
to get, set or reset properties on interfaces, addresses and protocols.
For subcommands that take an
addrobj, the
addrobj specifies unique address on the system.
It is made up of two parts, delimited by a ‘/’. The first part
is the name of the interface and the second part is a string up to 32
characters long. For example, “lo0/v4” is a loopback interface
addrobj name.
For subcommands that take a
protocol, this can be
one of the following values:
ip,
ipv4,
ipv6,
icmp,
tcp,
sctp or
udp.
The following subcommands are supported:
-
-
ipadm
create-ip
[-t
]
interface- Create the IP interface that will handle both IPv4 and IPv6 packets. The
interface will be enabled as part of the creation process. The IPv4

ipmp-interface- Create the IPMP interface that will handle both IPv4 and IPv6 packets. The

-a
[local|remote=
]addr[/prefixlen
]...
addrobj- Create an address on the specified IP interface using static
configuration. The address will be enabled but can disabled using the
ipadm
disable-addr subcommand. Note that
addrconf address configured on the
interface is required to configure
static IPv6 address on the same
interface. This takes the following options:
-
-
-a,--address- Specify the address. The
local or
remote prefix can be used for a
point-to-point interface. In this case, both addresses must be given.
Otherwise, the equal sign (“=”) should be omitted and
the address should be provided by itself without second address.

{seconds|forever}
]
addrobj- Create an address on the specified IP interface using DHCP. This takes the
following options:

nodename(4) will serve as
-h,--reqhost
if that switch is not otherwise specified.
-
-
-h,--reqhost- Specify the host name to send to the DHCP server in order to request
an association of a Fully Qualified Domain Name to the interface. An
FQDN is determined from hostname if
it is "rooted" (ending in a '.'), or if it consists of at
least three DNS labels, or by appending to
hostname the DNS domain name value
configured in
/etc/default/dhcpagent for
dhcpagent(1m). N.b. that the DHCP server
implementation ultimately determines whether and how the client-sent
FQDN is used.
-
-
-t,--temporary- Temporary, not persistent across reboots.
-
-
-w,--wait- Specify the time, in seconds, that the command should wait to obtain
an address; or specify
