10/100 Ethernet Management Ports (LAN)
Each Hitachi Simple Modular Storage 100 controller has a 10/100BaseT
Ethernet management port labeled LAN . These ports connect to the PC
acting as the management console.
Using these ports, you can configure and manage your Hitachi Simple
Modular Storage 100 using the Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2
software on the supplied CD. You can also use the storage features
described under Storage Features on page 1-3 to interact with your Hitachi
Simple Modular Storage 100.
These ports accept either a cross-over cable for direct connections to the
management port or a straight-through cable if connecting to the
management port through a switch.
Each management port has an amber port activity LED on the left side of
the port and a green link LED on the right side (see Table 2-5 on page 2-4
and Table 2-6 on page 2-4 ).
