To Set Ip Addresses - Sun Microsystems StorageTek 5320 Getting Started Manual

To Set IP Addresses

▼
If your network supports DHCP, an IP address is automatically assigned to your
LAN ports.
Note – You can bypass DHCP discovery if you have a fixed IP address. However,
there is a possibility that aborting the DHCP process will cause the server to reboot.
To bypass DHCP discovery, during the boot sequence when the LCD panel displays
"DHCP Discovery NIC X," you can press any key on the LCD panel and confirm the
"Abort DHCP?" message by pressing the right arrow button on the panel. Then you
can manually set the static IP address using the following instructions.
If DHCP is not available or you want to assign a static IP address, use server H1's
LCD panel:
1. Select Menu.
2. Select A. Network Config.
3. Select A. Set Gateway and enter the gateway address.
To enter data, use the up and down arrows to select digits, dots, or spaces. Then use
the ENTER or right arrow button to accept each character.
4. Select C. Set Port-emc2 (or emc3 or emc4) and enter the IP address, subnet mask,
and broadcast address as prompted.
This IP address information is assigned to the first regular (non-heartbeat) LAN port
on your system.
5. Select Escape twice to return to the main menu.
Caution – Do not change the private IP address on the network port that is used for
the HB port (heartbeat port), emc1.
Note – If you would like to verify your settings on the LCD panel, HB Port shows a
private IP address, and Port emc2 or Port emc3 or Port emc4 shows the information
you just entered.
You can edit the port information and assign addresses to other ports in the same
way.
