Ds300 Single Controller Sample Configurations - IBM TotalStorage DS300 Best Practices Manual

6.1 DS300 single controller sample configurations

In this section we describe sample configurations for the DS300 single controller
models.
6.1.1 DS300 single controller switched or routed attachment
(1701-1RL)
The DS300 model 1701-1RL has one GBit Ethernet port which is used for
management and iSCSI traffic. All DS300 models have in common that they
support one default gateway. This default gateway is normally used for the
management network. As the DS300 model 1701-1RL uses one interface for
management and iSCSI traffic, the default gateway can also be used for iSCSI
traffic. For the other models, it is necessary to configure additional routes to
enable routed access to the iSCSI ports.
Figure 6-1 shows a routed attachment of a single server. Additional servers can
also be connected to the gigabit switch, or somewhere else in the network behind
different routers.
