The Question is: How can we change the IP address to our vax box, in order to insert it into our local network? The Answer is :
Information on changing the IP host address(es) is mentioned in various
existing Ask The Wizard topics, including the following:
(430), (1069), (3991), (5777), (5906), (7710), (8004), etc.
The OpenVMS FAQ contains pointers to the OpenVMS documentation website;
to the website with the OpenVMS operating system documentation and also
particularly with the TCP/IP Services HTML-format product documentation
necessary for this particular question.
Specifically, the TCP/IP documentation will encourage you to select the
DHCP client support for the IP address (enabled using the UCX$CONFIG
tool on TCP/IP Services releases prior to V5.0, or the TCPIP$CONFIG
tool on V5.0 and later), or you will want to use the UCX$CONFIG or the
TCPIP$CONFIG tool to change the static IP host address for the OpenVMS
VAX host.
The DHCP client support is first available with TCP/IP Services V5.3.
For DHCP discussions, please see topics including (7954) and (4507),
and (of course) the TCP/IP Services documentation.
For a third-party IP stack, please contact the third-party vendor.
There is no OpenVMS VAX V7.3-1 release.
