Overview
IPF CLI Config automatically starts during the initial boot of the IP Fabric appliance and must be completed to proceed with the appliance’s deployment.
It introduces the configuration of basic network parameters, including:
- IP Fabric’s IP address and subnet
- DNS servers
- proxy server
Proxy Server Settings
If the proxy server wasn’t configured through ipf-cli-config
, please don’t
forget to add the following line to the /etc/environment
file:
no_proxy="localhost,127.0.0.1,127.0.1.1,::1"
This is usually a cause of failed upgrade process as wget
and curl
commands are
used in the backround to check connectivity with IP Fabric API and they attempt to
reach localhost
through the proxy server.
If some initial parameters need to be modified after completing the deployment,
you may re-run IPF CLI Config with the following command (with one or more
options) as osadmin
:
sudo ipf-cli-config
