Re: [tipc-discussion] Setting Node Address

[Andy S. <And...@in...>]

The online documentation says that 'tipc node set address' command can be omitted starting with kernel 4.17.  But it doesn't say that it should be replaced with 'tipc node set identity'.  Based on that and based on my testing, it doesn't seem like those 2 commands produce the same results.

Which command is still supported, is it 'tipc node set address'?  I'm getting operation not permitted error when I use 'tipc node set address'.
[Hoang] I don't know exactly in redhat 8, but in the upstream kernel (i.e v5.14.x) I'm able to use that one to set a node address.

Does 'tipc node set identity' set the node address?
[Hoang] Yuh, I think so. Please give a try on your node.

Sorry about all these questions.  Needless to say I'm not a tipc expert.

Let's use 'tipc node set identity' instead.
However, that command is still support as legacy, this means you can continue using it in your application.
