Setting Management Port IP Addresses Using the CLI
Ethernet Management ports on controller module A and controller module B are
configured with the following default values:
■
Management Port IP Address:
10.0.0.2 (controller A), 10.0.0.3 (controller B)
■
IP Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0
■
Gateway IP Address:
10.0.0.1
If the default IP addresses are not compatible with your network, you must set an IP
address for each management port using the command-line interface (CLI)
embedded in each controller module. The CLI enables you to access the system
using RS-232 communication and terminal emulation software.
Use the CLI commands described in the steps below to set the IP address for the
Ethernet management port on each controller module.
Once new IP addresses are set, you can change them as needed using RAIDar.
Note –
Changing IP settings can cause management hosts to lose access to the
storage system.
1. From your network administrator obtain an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
address for controller A and controller B.
