10/100 Ethernet management port
Each AMS 2100/2300 controller has one 10/100BaseT Ethernet
management port that is used to configure the controller using the
Navigator 2 configuration software. Configuration can be performed using
either a computer with an installed NIC card that is directly connected to
the management port or by connecting the management port to your Local
Area Network (LAN).
Using the management console, you can configure and manage an AMS
2000 Family array using the Navigator 2 software on the supplied CD. You
can also use the storage features described under Features and Benefits on
page 1-7 in the Hitachi AMS 2100/2300 Storage System Hardware Guide to
interact with an AMS 2100/2300 array. The same features are described on
page 1-8 in the Hitachi AMS 2500 Storage System Hardware Guide and also
work with an AMS 2500 array.
The management port accepts either a cross-over cable for direct
connections to the management port or a straight-through cable if
connecting to the management port through a switch. The port is a standard
RJ45 connector that has an amber Port Activity LED on the left side of the
port and a green Link LED on the right side. When an active LAN cable is
plugged into the port, the Link light comes on steady. The Activity LED lights
when data is being transferred to or from the port.
shows an example of how a laptop might be connected to an
AMS 2100/2300 base unit that is installed in a rack.

NOTE: If you use Navigator 2 to configure an AMS 2000 Family array to
send email alerts, be sure the management port can communicate via
Ethernet with your mail server. For more information, refer to the Navigator
2 online help.
