Changing the Director’s IP Address
If multiple directors are installed, or a public LAN segment is used, network
addresses must be changed to conform to the customer’s LAN addressing scheme.
The following items are required to perform this task:

HyperTerminal)
Note that the HAFM appliance may be used for this function and that
HyperTerminal is included in Windows 2000 provided in the HAFM
appliance.
