Network Configuration; Configuring The Network For The Service Processor; Configuring The Firewall; Displaying Firewall Status - HPE 3PAR StoreServ Software User's Manual

Network Configuration

NOTE: The SP and StoreServ must be on the same subnet during setup and installation. The SP has an
algorithm that uses the StoreServ serial number to initiate communication using a link local address
before the StoreServ is assigned an IP address. This is how the SP discovers the StoreServ, connects,
and performs setup. Link local address only works within the same subnet.
• When a StoreServ has an IP address, communication between the SP and StoreServ across the
subnet is not supported.
• Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that the SP and StoreServ remain on the same subnet for
optimal performance.

Configuring the Network for the Service Processor

The SP Network submenu of the SPMAINT utility allows you to manage the network and dialup settings
for the SP.
NOTE: Modem support is available only for systems that are earlier than SP 4.1.0.

Procedure
