Connecting the Storage-System Management Ports
Connecting the Storage-System Management Ports
Read this section if you are installing a
new
storage system.
You manage the storage system from a management host, which can
be a server that has access to the management ports over a specified
10/100 LAN. In addition, when you first set up the storage system,
you must initialize it from a host, which can be a server, connected to
the same network subnet as the storage-system management ports.
The management ports are located on the rear of the chassis and
labeled 10/100.
Before You Start
To complete this procedure, you need a standard CAT 5 or higher
LAN cable for the management port on each storage-system SP that
you will connect to the 10/100 LAN.
Cable the Storage-System Management Ports to the Network
For each SP, connect one end of a LAN cable to the 10/100
management port on the SP and the other end to the network from
which you will manage the storage system (Figure 15).
Be sure you do not connect the LAN cable to the serial or UPS ports.
