Configuring the Network
Using the Network page, each physical Ethernet port in the DXi can be
configured as a separate device. In addition, you can create bonded
devices (logical ports) consisting of two or more physical ports of the
same link speed (1GbE or 10GbE). For each port or device, you can
specify the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) frame size, and you can
optionally assign the port or device to a VLAN (Virtual Local Area
Network).
After you define devices (single port or bonded), you can create up to
ten network interfaces for each device. Each interface has its own IP
address information, and you can specify the types of traffic allowed on
the interface (management, replication, or data). Finally, you can add
routing information for an interface to enable connectivity with devices
on different subnets.
Note: You can choose to allow any traffic type (management,
replication, or data) on an interface. In this case, the routing of
different traffic types, as well as firewall capability, must be
controlled using the network infrastructure (routers and
switches) that the DXi is connected to.
Configuring the network includes the following major steps:
Note: Before configuring the network, work with your network
administrator to determine the network settings that will be
required to properly integrate the DXi8500 with your
company’s network.
