example, the DXi6900-S is configured as follows:

A single network interface with one IP address is configured for eth1.

All traffic types (management, data, and replication) travel over the single network interface.

All other settings are at default values.
The actual network settings you will enter depend on the configuration of your company’s network

as needed at a later time. For more information, see the “Network” section in the Quantum DXi6900-
