Before running net set wizard

NOTE: There is an alternative configuration wizard system set config that carries out a
number of additional configuration tasks, such as setting time, as well as running net set
wizard. Refer to the
Backup system CLI Reference Guide for more information.
Before running net set wizard you must make a number of decisions about your network
configuration.
1. Do you wish to configure DNS servers? Up to three may be configured. Make sure you have
the address details before you start.
2. Are you connecting a single port or are you connecting multiple ports to your network?
3. Which Ethernet port(s) are you connecting? If connecting multiple ports, which network bonding
mode should be used,the default is Active/Passive bonding?
NOTE:
4. Do you intend to connect to VLAN subnets, using VLAN tagging? If so, make sure that all
details are available to configure the VLAN subnets and tag IDs.
IMPORTANT:
only a couple initially in the wizard, After initial configuration, you can create a copy of the
configuration and edit the copy to attach the remaining VLAN subnets to portsets using
StoreOnce CLI commands, as illustrated in
is because you will not be able to save the configuration as you build it and if you make a
keying error during the wizard, you may have to start again from the beginning.
TIP: Even if you intend to use solely VLANs to connect to your system, HP recommends
configuring one physical subnet to test the initial installation. The easiest way to do this is to
use the default Quick Install connection to LAN port 1 over DHCP. When assigning DHCP
settings, most of the network values can be taken from DHCP. However, you must provide
VLAN tag IDs, if VLAN subnets are required.
5. Does your network use DHCP or static IP addresses?
If DHCP is used, it is recommended that once an IP address has been assigned, the system
Administrator should permanently associate that IP address with the StoreOnce Backup system.
This will avoid any problems with the IP address of the device changing over reboots.
If you select static IP addressing, make sure you know:
IP address of the HP StoreOnce Backup system

You cannot bond a 1GbE with a 10GbE port.
If you are configuring multiple VLAN subnets, HP recommends configuring
