Using A DNS Server

If you are using static IP addressing:

In the

Control Panel

, select

Network connections or Network and Sharing Center

and then click

Manage network connections

Right-click the network connection you want to configure and select

Properties

On the

General

tab (for a local area connection) or the

Networking

tab (for all other connections),

select

Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)

, and then click

Properties

Select

Obtain DNS server address automatically

or enter the preferred and alternate DNS server IP

addresses and click

Using A WINS Server

If you are using static IP addressing:

NOTE: If you are using a DHCP server to allocate WINS server IP addresses, you do not need to add

WINS server addresses.

In the

Control Panel

, select

Network connections

Right-click the network connection you want to configure and select

Properties

On the

General

tab (for a local area connection) or the

Networking

tab (for all other connections),

select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click

Properties

Select

Advanced

→

WINS

tab and click

Add

In the

TCP/IP WINS server

window, type the IP address of the WINS server and click Add.

To enable use of the Lmhosts file to resolve remote NetBIOS names, select

Enable LMHOSTS

lookup

To specify the location of the file that you want to import into the Lmhosts file, select

Import

LMHOSTS

and then select the file in the

Open

dialog box.

Enable or disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP.

Linux Host Setup

To set up a Linux host network, you must configure the IP address and netmask of each iSCSI port

connected to the storage array. The specific steps depend on whether you are configuring TCP/IP using

DHCP or configuring TCP/IP using a static IP address.

NOTE: The server IP addresses must be configured for network communication to the same IP

subnet as the storage array management and iSCSI ports.

Using DHCP

If you are using DHCP (root users only):

Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network file:

NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=mymachine.mycompany.com

Edit the configuration file for the connection you want to configure, either /etc/sysconfig/network-
scripts/ifcfg-ethX (for Red Hat Enterprise Linux) or /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (for SUSE Enterprise Linux).
