Table 3-1: Installation Checklist (continued)

Pre-configuration tasks

Specify host name resolution method

Setting the hostname resolution for the V6000 uses the same method as in the V6100. See

"Specify host name

resolution method" on page 26

for more information.

Configure DSM ports

If a DSM must communicate with a device behind a firewall, you must open various ports in the firewall. To see the
ports to configure, see

"Ports to Configure" on page 171

Configuration Tasks

When you configure the DSM Appliance, you must:

"Connect to the V6100 appliance" on page 28

"Access the DSM Command Line Interface (CLI)" on the next page

"Configure network settings" on page 77

"Configure a bonded NIC device" on page 79

"Bonding driver modes" on page 80

"Enable DHCP on bond0 interface" on page 81

"Configure NTP, time zone, date, time" on page 81

"Configure the hostname" on page 82

"Verify Web Access" on page 85

10.

"Upload a license file" on page 85

Connect to the V6000 appliance

To configure the DSM, you need to access the DSM Command Line Interface (CLI). To access the DSM CLI, you
need connect through the console serial port with a DB-9 cable. Configure your console connection using the following
parameters:

Terminal Type: VT100
