4. If using both 1GbE and 10GbE networks, or 1GbE network only, do you wish to use separate
sub-nets for data and management?...........................................................................
Which network will the default gateway be on? (This is the network that will allow remote access.)
nl
..............................................................................................................
6. Which network configuration/template do you intend to use?.......................................
If you need to access management and data tasks remotely, data and management must be
on the same sub-net. Options are:
Template 2: uses 1 GbE network only
Template 3: uses 10 GbE network only
If you do not need to access management tasks remotely, data and management can be on
separate sub-nets. Options are:
Template 1: uses separate 10 GbE and 1 GbE sub-nets
Template 4: uses two separate 1 GbE sub-nets
7. Are you providing the recommended range of IP addresses for the selected template?............
Below are the recommended values that will allow you to expand your system without the need
to reconfigure the network. For other options, see
addresses (page 14).
Templates 1 and 4: The recommended range is: 25 (data = 16 contiguous, management =
1+8 contiguous)
Templates 2 and 3: The recommended range is: 17 (data = 16 contiguous, management = 1)
8. Please enter networking parameters below. They are required for the network configuration script.
1. All templates:
nl
Virtual Management Console VIF IP address, recommended to be the first address in your
contiguous IP range..............................................................................................
2. Templates 1 and 4 only, Management sub-net parameters
nl
If provided, must be on same sub-net as Virtual Management Console VIF
Start IP adress......................................................................................................
End IP address (must be contiguous)..................................................................................
Netmask....................................................................................................................
3. All templates, Data sub-net parameters
Start IP adress............................................................................................................
End IP address (must be contiguous)...............................................................................
Netmask.........................................................................................................................
4. Domain name (optional).............................................................................................
5. All templates:
nl
Default gateway IP address.......................................................................................
6. DNS server IP address(es) .................................................................................
nl
up to three......................................................................................................................
IMPORTANT: Your HP service specialist will provide you with a record of the Virtual IP addresses
after the network configuration has been completed. These are the addresses that you need to
connect to the B6000 Management Console (from the GUI or CLI) and to configure backup and
replication targets.
9. Do you have sufficient physical network connections for your template (see also table below)?
1. Number of switches per network.................................................................
(The recommendation is for two switches for each network to which you are connecting.)
2. Number of physical ports available:
1GbE..............................................................
10GbE..............................................................
