Network Configuration menu

The Network Configuration menu enables you to manage the network settings. You should use this menu when the OnCommand Unified Manager user interface is not available.

Note: This menu is not available if Unified Manager is installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

The following menu choices are available.
