Configuring The Ip Addresses - IBM SAN512B-6 Installation, Service And User Manual

Configuring the IP addresses

About this task
The device requires three IP addresses, which are configured using the ipAddrSet
command. IP addresses are required for both CP blades (CP0 and CP1) and for
chassis management (shown as SWITCH under the ipAddrShow command) in the
device.
The default IP addresses and host names for the device are:
v 10.77.77.75 / CP0 (the CP blade in slot 1 at the time of configuration)
v 10.77.77.74 / CP1 (the CP blade in slot 2 at the time of configuration)
Use one of the following formats for IPv4 or IPv6 addressing when entering the IP
address using the ipaddrset command:
v If you using an IPv4 IP address, enter the IP address in dotted decimal notation
v If using an IPv6 address, enter the network information in colon-separated
Note:
Resetting an IP address while the device has active IP traffic or has management
and monitoring tools running, such as DCFM, Fabric Watch, and SNMP, can cause
traffic to be interrupted or stopped.
Complete the following steps to set the IP addresses for the device.
Procedure
1. Log into the device through a serial console connection to the active CP blade.
2. Configure the chassis management IP address by entering the ipaddrset

The active CP is indicated by an illuminated blue LED on the blade front panel.
If you are already logged through a console port, you can determine whether
you are logged into the active or standby CP by entering hashow at the prompt.
The following example shows local login at CP1, which is the active blade.
swDir:admin> hashow
Local CP (Slot 2, CP1) : Active, Warm Recovered
Remote CP (Slot 1, CP0) : Standby, Healthy
HA Enabled, Heartbeat Up, HA State Synchronized
-chassis command:
swDir:admin> ipAddrSet -chassis
Enter required information at the prompts. Specify the -chassis IP address. The
-sw 0 IP address is not valid on this device.
Note: The addresses 10.0.0.0 through 10.0.0.255 are reserved and used
internally by the device. External IPs must not use these addresses.
