• Validate the desired network configuration
Review
Understand Network Requirements and Configuration
network topology of your Exalogic machine. In addition, review the network
topology with your network administrator.
• Ensure that all required network parameters are available
After determining the desired network configuration, you should determine a full
set of network parameters, such as gateway addresses, netmask, IP addresses for
NET0, BOND0, BOND1 (if needed), ILOMs, and so on. You are required to enter
them in the configurator spreadsheet, which is used as input by Exalogic

You must have connected your Exalogic machine to the data center's Ethernet
device, such as a switch. For more information, see
