Checking network connectivity
To check network connectivity:
1. On the client system to which you are trying to connect, open a command line interface.
2. Run the command ipconfig and note the IP address of the client.
3. Open a command line interface on the appliance.
4. Run the command ping <IP address of client>.
5. Depending on the result, do one of the following:
•
If the client does not reply to the ping, verify the server’s connectivity and network settings.
•
If the client replies, check that the firewall settings allow the DL1300 components to run.

Checking the firewall settings
If the client is connected properly to the network, but cannot be seen by the Core console, check the firewall to
ensure that necessary inbound and outbound communications are allowed.
To check the firewall settings on the Core and any clients that it backs up:
1. On the DL1300 appliance, click Start > Control Panel.
2. In the Control Panel, click System and Security, under Windows Firewall click Check firewall status.
3. Click Advanced Settings.
4. In the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security screen, click Inbound Rules.
5. Ensure the Core and ports display Yes in the Enabled column.
6. If the rule is not enabled, right-click on Core and select Enable Rule.
7. Click Outbound Rules and verify the same for Core.

Checking DNS resolution
If the machine you are trying to back up uses DNS, verify that DNS forward and reverse lookups are correct.
To ensure that the reverse lookups are correct:
1. On the appliance, go to
C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc
hosts.
2. Enter the IP address of each client that backs up to DL1300.

Teaming network adapters
By default, the network adapters (NICs) on the DL1300 Appliance are not bonded, which affects the performance
of the system. It is recommended that you team the NICs to a single interface. Teaming the NICs require:
•
Reinstalling the Broadcom Advanced Control Suite
•
Creating the NIC team
