Management and Data Network IP addresses
About this task
After a VxFlex OS system has been deployed, you can use the VxFlex OS GUI to add
management or data IP addresses to the system.
Procedure
1. In the VxFlex OS GUI, from the System Settings menu at the top right side of
the window, select the System Settings option.
The System Settings window is displayed.
2. Select the type of network to which you want to allocate IP addresses:
Management Network or Data Network.
l
The AMS uses management networks to communicate with and control the
appliance objects. No I/O passes through these networks. Management
networks can be on different subnets, as long as the AMS can communicate
with them either via local IP addresses or using a router. If a router is used,
the discovery server must be on the same Level 2 physical network as the
appliance nodes in order to enable 2-layer broadcasts.
l
For data networks, allocate IP addresses for data networks A and B,
10/25/100 GbE networks that are used for inter-node communications, as
well as for passing I/O. For ESXi servers, define ranges for both the ESXi
host and the Storage VM (SVM) that resides on each host.
3. In the appropriate parts of the window, do one of the following:
a. To change the range of an existing IP address pool, edit the addresses.
b. To add another IP address pool, click the + button, and type the new IP
address range in the new row.
