Note: Before specifying a target, make sure you have completed
the Replication wizard on the target DXi. The target DXi
must be configured to allow the source DXi hostname or IP
address.
a In the Target Hostname or IP Address box, enter the hostname
or IP address of the system that will receive the replicated data.
Note: When entering IP addresses, never use an address that
is in a reserved IP address range. To see a list of
reserved IP address ranges, click the quick tip icon [?]
located near the IP address field.
Note: To use hostname format, you must specify at least one
DNS IP address on the Network page (see
page 303).
b (Optional) Select the Encrypt data before replication check
box to enable encryption when sending replication data to the
target system. Or clear the Encrypt data before replication
check box to disable encryption when sending replication data
to the target system.
If encryption is enabled, select an encryption strength (128-bit
or 256-bit). Using 256-bit encryption (default) provides a
stronger level of security but may have an impact on system
performance in some situations.
Caution: Select 128-bit encryption if you are sending data to
a DXi running a system software version prior to
DXi 2.1 Software.
Note: For best performance, if your data network is already
secured, you should clear the Encrypt data before
replication check box.
c In the Source IP Address field, enter the IP address that is used
to uniquely identify the source DXi to the target. This may be
different than the actual network IP address of the source DXi.
