Yes or No in this fielddetermines whether or not NET1 will be configured forchannel bonding. If it is, it will be bonded to with the NET2interface.If channel bonding is not used for the Client Access Network,then NET2 is available as an additional network interface(eth2). This field is the starting IP address for the range of IPsassigned to NET2 across the database servers. If configured,this network must be separate from all other networks onExadata.The subnet mask for the NET2 network interface.The IP address of the gateway used by the NET2 network.This suffix is appended to the host name on each of thedatabase servers to identify the NET2 network.NET3 is an optional network available on the databaseservers. This is the IP address for the sequential range of IPsfor the NET3 network. This network must be separate from allother networks on the system.The subnet mask for the NET3 network.The IP address of the gateway for the NET3 network.This suffix is appended to the host name on each of thedatabase servers to identify the NET3 network.The power distribution unit (PDU) has an Ethernet interface(eth0) and can be configured on the network by assigning it anIP address. This field defines the IP address for the PDU.250
