Each VMI has an interface in both HMC networks. The default setting for these interfaces is to use static IP addresses. In most environments, however, the HMCs are configured as DHCP servers in the private networks, which means that the VMI interfaces must obtain their IP address via DHCP.

The interfaces can be reconfigured using the command “ms chvmi”.
