    If for some reason you need to change the IP address of your AMP, here's are some simple steps to follow:

     

    1. Plan ahead 

         Plan out the IP address you'll be assigning to AMP.

     

    2. Get updated license

         Since your AMP license is tied to IP address, go to https://licensing.arubanetworks.com and get an updated license key ahead of time.  If you're unable to get the license key from there, then send an email to support@arubanetworks.com.

     

    3. Commit change

         Make the IP change on your AMP.  The rest of the article will describe the quick way to make the change from both UI and CLI.

     

    4. Apply new license key

         Go to Home -> License -> replace license key -> Save -> re-accept licensing agreement.

     

    5. Update other network devices

         This is commonly the most forgotten piece of this process.  First thing is make sure the network firewalls have been adjusted to coincide with the change.  Second, if you've got your controllers sending traps to AMP, you will need to update the setting on the controller.  Third, double check that firewall.

     

     

    ================

    Making the change from the AMP GUI

    ================

    1. Go to AMP Setup

    2. Go to Network

    3. Update network information

    4. Save

    Making the change from the AMP CLI

    ================

    1. Login to CLI as root (or root privilege user)

    2. Run the 'network_setup' script

         # network_setup

    3. Apply and commit changes

     

    [root@QARob mercury]# network_setup

    ------------------ Primary Network Interface Configuration ---------------

    1) IP Address : 10.10.10.100
    2) Netmask : 255.255.255.0
    3) Gateway : 10.10.10.1
    4) Primary DNS :
    5) Secondary DNS :

    Hate to do this to an old thread but on a 7.6.6 server the command #network_setup no longer works from the CLI. Has it changed?

    It should still be there.  Check that the script's file permission and type are unchanged:

     

    [root@rob mercury]# ls -la /usr/local/airwave/bin/network_setup
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3673 Aug 28 08:17 /usr/local/airwave/bin/network_setup*

     

    [root@rob mercury]# file /usr/local/airwave/bin/network_setup
    network_setup: a /opt/airwave/bin/perl script text executable

     

    Alternatively, even if the short command network_setup doesn't run, you should be able to do the following to run the script:

    # cd /usr/local/airwave/bin

    # ./network_setup
