IP addresses for the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system
MNT ports are used to connect to a LAN for operation management.
The remote support uses MNT ports for a network connection by default. In this situation, the
network connection for the remote support is transferred via the company LAN. When the
network connection for remote support needs to be separated from the company LAN, use
the RMT ports to connect to the remote support center via a different network.
The following section provides connection examples and explains the
necessary preparation for when the IP address of the Slave CM is set.
•
For the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system, two IP addresses for the
MNT port are required.
•
An IP address is required for a PC terminal that is used for maintenance
operations performed by a maintenance engineer.
•
Network devices such as LAN switches are required for operation
management.
•
Two enhanced Cat-5 twisted-pair type LAN cables are required to
connect the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system to the LAN for
operation management.

IMPORTANT
•
To use the RMT port, make sure to specify an IP address on a
different subnet from the MNT port as the IP address of the RMT
port. When the network setting is not performed for the RMT port, the
RMT port is disabled.
Make sure to connect each controller to the network for remote sup-
port.
•
When specifying the IP address of the Slave CM, specify an IP
address that is in the same subnet but is different from the IP
address of the Master CM.
