Connecting the network cables
The networking ports are accessed on the rear panel of the device. The remote
management port is for use by Veritas Technical Support staff or by approved field
service technicians.
The following picture shows the layout of the network ports. It includes the four 1
Gb Ethernet ports on the right.
The remote management (IPMI) port is located to the left of the 1 Gb Ethernet ports.
By default, NIC1 (eth0) is factory set to IP address 192.168.229.233. This private
network address is reserved to provide a direct connection from a laptop to perform
the initial configuration. NIC1 (eth0) is typically not connected to your network
environment.
Once the initial configuration has been completed, you can connect NIC1 (eth0) to
an administrative network that does not provide any backup data transfer.
Note: You cannot bond the copper 1 GbE ports that are installed in the appliance
chassis with optical ports on PCIe 10/25 GbE cards.
