Network Configuration (CLI)

Modifying the network configuration setting in a restricted Colocation environment can be far easier to achieve via the command line. The first step is SSH into the system, change to the specified directory and view the current network settings, as shown below

aaron@display0:/tmp$ ssh fmadio@192.168.11.75
fmadio@192.168.11.75's password:
  _____                    .___.__      10G
_/ ____\_____  _____     __| _/|__|  ____
\   __\/     \ \__  \   / __ | |  | /  _ \
 |  | |  Y Y  \ / __ \_/ /_/ | |  |(  <_> )
 |__| |__|_|  /(____  /\____ | |__| \____/
            \/      \/      \/
