Oracle Redhat 6.4 - eth0: no IPv6 routers present

user596857Apr 25 2013 — edited Jun 7 2013
Dear Experts,

I installed Oracle Redhat 6.4.

But the network is not working.

What is the secret to making it work?

Analysis below.

Thanks a lot!

--------

Use:
file /usr/share/system-config-network/netconf_tui.py
/usr/share/system-config-network/netconf_tui.py: a /usr/bin/python script text executable

- brings up a character based GUI

DEVICE CONFIGURATION
DNS Configuration

change DNS Configuration from Belkin to the DNS of the router.


Device:

DHCP

save and quit

(This will be changed to static eventually, but my
practice/experience is to get it to first work with DHCP)
