Networking tips
• On the external storage K2 Media Client, the two control GigE ports are configured
as a team. The control team shares a single IP address. Do not attempt to un-team
the control ports. On the Level 3 K2 Storage System, only one control port is
connected, as control team redundancy is not supported.
• On the external storage K2 Media Client, the two media (iSCSI) GigE ports are not
teamed. On the Level 3 K2 Storage System, only one media port is connected, as
iSCSI redundancy is not supported.
Also refer to “About networks and FTP” on page 330 and “Design considerations for
Ethernet switches” on page 376 .
Use the following procedures as necessary to implement your networking strategies.
NOTE: It is recommended that you configure Media network (iSCSI) IP addresses
and Streaming network IP addresses using the K2 System Configuration
application, rather than doing so on the local machine using standard Windows
procedures.
Networking tips
• Before beginning network configuration, determine the IP addresses and names
needed for the machines in your K2 system. Work with the network administrator
at your facility to have those IP addresses and names available for your use.
• Establish a consistent convention for machine names and IP addresses. It is
recommended that you embed a root name or other unique identifier for this
particular K2 Storage System in the computer name. Also, a common convention
for IP addresses is to use a numerical pattern or sequence in the IP addresses to
indicate device-types and/or ports, as in the following example:
NOTE: This example assumes a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0
