and netmask.

Enter the following network information as provided by your
network administrator (all fields are required):
• IP Address - The IP address of the interface.
• Netmask - The network mask of the interface.
• Gateway - The gateway of the DXi8500. (This is usually not the
same as the default gateway.)
3 Select the check box for each type of network traffic allowed on the
interface (segmentation):
Note: At least one interface must allow management traffic.
Note: If the DXi is configured for source or target replication, you
should configure at least one interface to allow replication
traffic (select Repl or Any ) before applying changes to
network settings.
Note: If you configure segmentation for non-bonded interfaces
(Ethernet ports) that are on the same subnet, all traffic will
use the lowest numbered Ethernet port first, no matter
how segmentation is configured. To avoid this issue, create
bonded interfaces, and then select the desired traffic type
for each bonded interface.
• Mgmt - Select to allow management traffic.
•
Repl
- Select to allow replication traffic.
• Data - Select to allow data traffic.
•
Any
- Select to allow all types of traffic (management,
replication, and data).
4 Click Update to save the changes you made to the IP Address table.
(Clicking Update does not yet apply the new network settings to
the DXi8500.)
