Configuring Network Settings

The Network WebYaST module allows you to configure the network on the target system. To configure the network, follow these steps:

  1. Log into the WebYaST interface of the target system and start the Network module.

  2. On the IP Address tab, select the network Configuration mode from the drop-down menu. You can choose between Automatic or Manual configuration or to leave the network Not configured.

    To configure the network automatically via DHCP, select Automatic on the IP Address tab. In the automatic configuration mode, you can change the default Hostname and the Domain on the DNS tab.

    To configure the network manually, select Manual on the IP Address tab. Enter the IP address and Prefixlen. The prefix should be specified in the CIDR /nn format, where nn is a number between 0 and 32.

    On the DNS tab, enter the HostnameDomain, and specify Name servers and Search domains to use. On the Routing tab, specify the Default route.

  3. Click Save.  

    [Warning]Changing IP Address or Hostname

    The change in network configuration is done immediately after clicking the Next button. If the hostname or IP address is changed, it may be necessary to change the URL in the browser before you can continue.
