Task 10: Setting-up the Subsystem
41
If you choose to enable DHCP, have your Network Administrator dedicate an IP
address for the VTrak, linked to the VTrak’s MAC address. This action prevents
the DHCP server from assigning a new IP address when the VTrak restarts, with
the result that users can no longer log in.
To access the MAC address for VTrak’s virtual management port:
•
In the CLI, type
net -v
and press Enter.
•
In the CLU Main Menu, highlight
Network Management
and press Enter.
Then highlight
Virtual
and press Enter.
VTrak Default IP Addresses
VTrak uses virtual and physical IP addresses. This arrangement enables you to
access a VTrak with two RAID controllers over your network using a single IP
address.
Virtual Management Port
The default virtual management port IP address is set to 10.0.0.1.
Use the virtual management port IP address to log into the VTrak over your
network. See “Logging into WebPAM PROe” on page 46.
Physical Management Ports
The default physical management port IP addresses are set to:
•
Controller 1 – 10.0.0.2
•
Controller 2 – 10.0.0.3
Use the physical management port IP address only when a controller is in
maintenance mode
. See the
VTrak E-Class Product Manual
on the software DVD
for more information.
Setting up VTrak with the CLI
To set the system date and time, type the following string and press Enter.
administrator@cli>
date -a mod -d 2010/06/25 -t 14:50:05
In the above example, the date and time are included as examples only. Your
values will be different. Use yyyyy/mm/dd for the date and a 24-hour clock for the
time.
