Network Configuration
The default StorNext M662 network interface configuration is as
follows:
• Two interfaces, Eth2 and Eth3, bonded together into bond0 for the
Metadata network. This bond can be broken in the GUI and the
service menu. When not bonded, Eth2 will be configured as a
standalone port and Eth3 will be de-configured and not used by the
system.
• Two interfaces, Eth1 and Eth4, are bonded together into bond1 for
GUI/management. This bond can be broken in the GUI and the
service menu. When not bonded, Eth1 will be configured as a
standalone port and Eth4 will be de-configured and not used by the
system.
• The remaining five ports can be configured through the GUI in
various combinations and bonds for gateway port access.
