New IP range

[Edgar]

My host provided me with a new ip range, I tried adding a vmbr with the new IP but it didn't work.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks

Hello Edgar,

I understood you tried to change one or more IP addresses. Yes, it´s possible; you have to change IP addresses in /etc/network/interfaces and then

/etc/init.d/networking restart

It´s not necessary to add a new vmbr, but of course you can.

Note: if you use the WEB-GUI for changing it will not be made directly but only after reboot of host.

What in particular you tried and "didn´t work"?

Kind regards

Mr.Holmes

When you make changes through WebGUI, it gets written in /etc/network/interfaces.new. After reboot the changes from interfaces.new gets to permanent /etc/network/interfaces.

As Mr. Holmes pointed out already, please elaborate little more what did not work. If your new IP range has different subnet than your current cluster, then no you cannot access it directly without some form of routing. Just guessing.
