DXI 6540/6550 With All Customer Interfaces Used Independently
Data traffic comes from two media servers going thru GbE port #1 and the two
10 GbE ports. Replication and management traffic are routed to GbE port #0.

Subnets for Data
The following syscli sequences can be used to configure a similar setup.
To display the existing configuration:
syscli --show netcfg
First, delete the default bond configuration with all customer ports connected
together:
syscli --del netcfg --devname bond0:2
Then configure Eth0 for IPADDR1 and, if applicable, configure GATEWAY1:
syscli --add netcfg --devname eth0 --ipaddr IPADDR1 --netmask NETMASK1 -
-gateway GATEWAY1
Then configure Eth1 for IPADDR2 and, if applicable, configure GATEWAY2:
syscli --add netcfg --devname eth1 --ipaddr IPADDR2 --netmask NETMASK2 -
-gateway GATEWAY2
Deleting a Bond and Setting Up Independent Interfaces
This section provides an example for using the
netcfg
CLI command to delete a
bond that has eth0 and eth1 as slaves and set them up as independent
interfaces. The DXi ships with all ports bonded, and you must undo bonding if
you want to use the individual Ethernet ports to communicate with other
systems on separate subnets.
