Obtaining IP Values
You can configure addressing parameters for each controller module’s network port. You can set static IP
values or use DHCP.
Note: See the “Configuring network ports” topic in the QXS Storage Disk Storage Management Utility
Users Guide (V2 or V3) .
Setting Network Port IP Addresses Using DHCP
In DHCP mode, network port IP address, subnet mask, and gateway values are obtained from a DHCP
server if one is available. If a DHCP server is unavailable, current addressing is unchanged. You must have
a means of determining what addresses have been assigned, such as the list of bindings on the DHCP
server.
Because DHCP is disabled by default in QXS Storage systems, you must either use the CLI to change
controller IP address settings or use Disk Storage Management Utility’s Configuration Wizard as described
in the Using the Configuration Wizard topic in the
QXS Storage Disk Storage Management Utility Users
Guide (V2 or V3).
Setting Network Port IP Addresses Using the CLI
If you did not use DHCP to set network port IP values, set them manually (default method) as described
below. If you are using the USB CLI port and cable, you will need to enable the port for communication.
Network ports on controller module A and controller module B are configured with the following default
values:
l
Network port IP address: 10.0.0.2 (controller A), 10.0.0.3 (controller B)
l
IP subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
l
Gateway IP address: 10.0.0.1
If the default IP addresses are not compatible with your network, you must set an IP address for each
network port using the CLI embedded in each controller module. The CLI enables you to access the system
using the USB communication interface and terminal emulation software.
Note: If you are using the mini-USB CLI port and cable, see USB device connection: CLI port on
page 199 .
-Windows customers should download and install the device driver as described in Microsoft Windows
on page 200 .
-Linux customers should prepare the USB port as described in Setting Parameters for the Device
Driver
on page 201 .
Use the CLI commands described in the steps below to set the IP address for the network port on each
controller module.
