The DHCP server automatically assigns new IP addresses to the controller Ethernet
port.
Steps for assigning static TCP/IP addresses to the controllers: To complete
this procedure, you must have the following components:
v A host that is connected to a storage subsystem through a fibre-channel I/O path
v A management station that is connected by an Ethernet cable to the storage
