Management station
Direct (out-of-band) management method
This method uses Ethernet connections from a management station to each
controller. You must install at least one management station. The management
station can be the host or a workstation on the Ethernet network. A management
station will have the client software installed. Attach Ethernet cables to each
management station (one pair per storage subsystem). You will connect the cables
to each storage subsystem controller later when you install the storage subsystem.
Figure 76 on page 114 shows the direct (out-of-band) management method.
You can either use the default controller Ethernet IP addresses for out-of-band
connection or change the default controller Ethernet IP addresses by using
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or Storage Manager client. Refer to
the
DS Storage Manager Installation, User's and Maintenance Guide
for the
appropriate operating system for more information on setting the management
connections and installing the DS5100 and DS5300 management software.
For a listing of default IP addresses, see Ethernet ports on page 14.
Note:
Do not connect the storage subsystem Ethernet ports to a public network or
public subnet. Create a private network between the storage subsystem and
the management station.
