2. Input the required network information and click OK. You can configure both controllers
from this window by selecting the appropriate ethernet port from the drop down list. Make
sure to click OK after configuring both of them. You must set the same default gateway on
both controllers.
The DS3500 has two Ethernet ports per controller. Make sure to select the port of each
controller you already cabled. If you are planning to have the system connected to only
one network, select port 1, leaving port 2 for service.
Note: After changing the IP addresses, DS Storage Manager can freeze, as you have lost
management connection to subsystem. Close the Storage Subsystem window, and
remove the subsystem with changed IP addresses from the Enterprise Management
window. Then add the subsystem, by automatic discovery or add it manually by entering
your newly assigned IP addresses.
Tip: To manage storage subsystems through a firewall using out-of-band management,
configure the firewall to open port 2463 to TCP data.

10.8 Configure iSCSI Ports

If your DS3500 has optional iSCSI daughter card installed, select one controller in Physical
pane, right click on it, and select Configure  iSCSI Ports
It opens a window as in Figure 10-19 on page 280, used for setting parameters of iSCSI ports
on daughter cards in DS3500. controllers. All iSCSI configuration options and also iSCSI port
settings are described in Chapter 13, "Administration - iSCSI" on page 317.
