Reconfiguring IP in XenServer via command line

If you need to reconfigure an IP address of XenServer via the command line.

xe pif-reconfigure-ip uuid= mode=static IP= gateway= netmask=

If using DHCP for assigning IPs, then,

#xe pif-reconfigure-ip mode=dhcp uuid=

If using STATIC then,

#xe pif-reconfigure-ip mode=static DNS= gateway=<IP of Gateway> IP= netmask= uuid=

If a server has multiple network cards you can use the following commands to assist in establishing the active link:

xe pif-plug uuid
xe pif-list
