Overview

Provides instructions on how to update the network configuration of your appliance to align with your current infrastructure requirements. This walks you through the steps necessary to modify the IP address while ensuring continued system connectivity.

Before you begin

  • Deregister your Cisco ISE node from the distributed deployment. Then, convert it to a standalone node before you change the IP address

  • Do not use the no ip address command when changing the Cisco ISE device's IP address.

Procedure

1.

Log in to the Cisco ISE CLI.

2.

Enter these commands:

  1. configure terminal

  2. interface GigabitEthernet 0

  3. ip address new_ip_address new_subnet_mask

    When prompted for the IP address change, enter Y . A similar screen appears.

ise-13-infra-2/admin(config-GigabitEthernet)# ip address a.b.c.d 255.255.255.0

% Changing the IP address might cause ISE services to restart
