Combine or Separate Network Traffic
: Network traffic is either
separated according to specific network needs or combined on a
single IP address for simplicity. The DXi4500 has the capability of
separating data traffic, replication traffic, and management traffic.
Each traffic type can have its own IP address or they can be
combined on a single IP address.
DXi4500 Segmentation
Options
The DXi4500 allows the user to select one of the following network
segmentation options:
DXi4500 - (4 x 1GbE ports)
•
BOND ALL (Not segmented)
- Both ports (ETH2, ETH3, ETH4, and
ETH5) are bonded together and require a single set of network
settings on the
IP
page.
•
BOND ALL (Replication/Management/Data)
- All ports (ETH2,
ETH3, ETH4, and ETH5) are bonded together for all traffic types.
Each segment (Data, Management, and Replication) requires a set
of network settings on the
IP
page.
•
ETH2 (Replication), BOND ALL-1 (Management/Data)
- All
Replication traffic takes place on port ETH2. Data and Management
traffic take place on ports ETH3, ETH4 and ETH5. Each segment
(Data, Management, and Replication) requires a set of network
settings on the
IP
page.
•
ETH2 (Management), BOND ALL-1 (Replication/Data)
- All
Management traffic takes place on port ETH2. Data and Replication
traffic take place on ports ETH3, ETH4 and ETH5. Each segment
(Data, Management, and Replication) requires a set of network
settings on the
IP
page.
•
BOND ALL-1 (Data), ETH2 (Replication/Management)
- All Data
traffic takes place on ports ETH3, ETH4 and ETH5. Management and
Replication traffic take place on port ETH2. Each segment (Data,
Management, and Replication) requires a set of network settings on
the
IP
page.
