Chapter 3 – Using the nTier300 VTL BlueScale Web Interface
48
Viewing and Configuring IP Addresses
The nTier300 VTL includes two onboard Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) ports on the
nTier300 VTL rear panel (see Figure 1-3 on page 15). Depending on your
configuration, you may have one additional 10 GigE NIC installed in one of the
integrated server expansion slots.
One Ethernet port is used to access the FalconStor VTL Console and the BlueScale web
interface. You can configure the IP addressing for the other Ethernet port and use them
to connect the nTier300 VTL to additional networks or iSCSI devices. You can then
assign different uses for each network connection. For example, you might use one
network connection for archiving virtual tapes to physical tapes in a library connected
to the network.
Note:
You can use ether Ethernet port 1 or 2 to access the nTier300 VTL
from the VTL Console or to access the BlueScale web interface.
Note:
After connecting to the nTier300 VTL through the VTL Console for
the first time, you can use it to determine the IP address for
Ethernet port 1. You can then use the BlueScale web interface to
change the IP addressing to static, if desired.
Note:
If you change the IP configuration of Ethernet port 1, remember to
update any browser bookmarks you use to connect to the
BlueScale web interface.
Use the following steps to view or change the IP addressing for each Ethernet port.
1.
Log into the BlueScale web interface (see
Accessing the BlueScale Web Interface
on
page 38)
2.
Select
Configuration > Network
