Note:
The grid displays a graphical representation of the Ethernet
as they appear on the rear of the system. Ports that are
bonded together in an interface are shaded the same color.

For each network segment (
Management
,
Replication
, and
Data
),
enter the following network information as provided by your
network administrator:
•
IP Address
- The IP address of the DXi4000.
•
Netmask
- The network mask of the DXi4000.
•
Gateway
- (Optional) The gateway IP address.

Under
Bonding
, select the bonding mode:
Note:
To maintain network connectivity, the switch connected to
the DXi4000 must be configured to use the same bonding
mode. The best time to change the bonding mode on the
switch is during the next reboot of your system, after
saving the new network settings. Changing the bonding
mode on the switch before saving these settings and
rebooting may result in the loss of network connectivity to
the system.
•
Round Robin (Mode 0)
- This option sends Ethernet frames
using the bonded Ethernet ports with a valid MII link. Frames
are sent in a round-robin fashion, starting with the first slave
device and then the rest of the devices. This only applies to the
traffic sent from the DXi4000. The Ethernet switch needs to
aggregate the ports, so the connected ports are treated as a
