Initial Configuration, Connecting with the Network

Understanding Interface Routing
For a network on the interface to communicate with a host located on a different subnet,
you must specify routing information in the Routing Details section. Routing is used to
direct outgoing traffic from a network interface on the ETERNUS CS800 to an IP address
in another subnet by means of a destination gateway. Responses from the destination are
routed back to the ETERNUS CS800 using the gateway specified for the interface in the IP
Address Table section.
In addition, when configuring segmented network interfaces, if the source ETERNUS
CS800 replication, data, and management interfaces are on the same subnet, you must
add a host route on the source ETERNUS CS800 to make sure the replication interface is
correctly selected when replicating data to the target ETERNUS CS800.
See the following examples for details:
"Example 1: Segments and Target on Different Subnets"
"Example 2: Segments on the Same Subnet and Target on a Different Subnet"
Example 1: Segments and Target on Different Subnets
In the example below (see
faces, one for management traffic and one for data traffic:
The management interface is assigned to the 10.30.24.x subnet in the IP Address
Table section. This subnet connects to the corporate network by mean of the default
gateway (10.30.24.1).
The data interface is assigned to the 10.20.20.x subnet in the IP Address Table
section. This subnet connects to a gateway at 10.20.20.1.
Using the data interface, the ETERNUS CS800 needs to connect to a backup host that
is on the 10.50.50.x subnet. Because this host is not on the same subnet as the data
interface, the ETERNUS CS800 cannot communicate with the host unless you specify
routing information in the Routing Details section.
In this example, you would specify 10.50.50.0 for destination network, 255.255.255.0
for the destination netmask, and 10.20.20.1 as the destination gateway.

The gateway specified in the IP Address Table section is for incoming traffic to the
interface. The gateway specified in the Routing Details section is for outgoing traffic
from the interface.
