Note:
If the DXi6900 is a replication target and is behind a NAT router, you
must
configure a NAT
IP Address
NATed
Select the check box if the IP address of the DXi is translated by a firewall to a NAT
IP address when the DXi communicates to the outside world.
NAT IP Address
The IP address used to access the DXi from the public network. The router that
connects the DXi to the Internet performs Network Address Translation that maps
the IP address of the DXi to the NAT IP address, providing a valid replication
interface for a source DXi.
6. Select the check box for each type of network traffic allowed on the interface (segmentation):
At least one interface must allow management traffic.
Mgmt
Select to allow management traffic.
Repl
Select to allow replication traffic.
Data
Select to allow data traffic.
Any
Select to allow all types of traffic (management, replication, and data).
Additional Information
l
At least one interface must allow management traffic.
l
If the DXi is configured for source or target replication, you should configure at least one interface
to allow replication traffic (select
Repl
or
Any
) before applying changes to network settings.
l
If you configure segmentation for non-bonded interfaces (Ethernet ports) that are on the same
subnet, all traffic will use the lowest numbered Ethernet port first, no matter how segmentation is
configured. To avoid this issue, create bonded interfaces, and then select the desired traffic type
for each bonded interface.
7. Click
Update
to save the changes you made to the
IP Address
table. (Clicking
Update
does not yet
apply the new network settings to the DXi6900.)
8. Click
Delete
to remove IP address information for the selected interface. Or click
Undo
to revert all
current IP Address Table changes to the last update.
