Address 

A virtual IP address, different from the base IP address, which is associated with the interface—the address you specify must not be the same as the configured physical IP address. 

Type and dimension: string-scalar 

Example: 192.203.47.61 

Example: "192.203.47.61" 

Device 

The name of the NIC device associated with the IP address. Requires the device name without an alias. 

Type and dimension: string-scalar 

Example: Specify eth0 to assign the IP address to the next available alias. Use the ifconfig -a command to display a list of NICs that are up and the IP addresses assigned to each NIC. 

NetMask 

Symantec strongly recommends that you set this value manually. The default value for this attribute can cause delays in establishing inter-node connections. 

Subnet mask associated with the IP address. Specify the value of NetMask in decimal (base 10). 

If Netmask is not specified, the agent uses the operating system's default netmask. 

Type and dimension: string-scalar 

Example: 255.255.255.0 

Example: "255.255.255.0" 

Options 

Options for the ifconfig command. 

Type and dimension: string-scalar 

Example: mtu 1500
