• You or your system administrator must have set up a password for the System Manager GUI, or you must
configured Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) or LDAP and a directory service for the appropriate
security access to the storage array. See the ThinkSystem System Manager online help for more
information about Access Management.

all of the passwords using the admin credentials. See ThinkSystem System Manager online help for
more information on the four local user roles.

Description
Select the desired speed.
The options that appear in the drop-down list depend on the maximum
speed that your network can support (for example, 10 Gbps).
Note: The optional iSCSI host interface cards in the DE6000H and
DE6000F controllers do not auto-negotiate speeds. You must set the
speed for each port to either 10 Gb or 25 Gb. All ports must be set to
the same speed.
Select one or both options to enable support for IPv4 and IPv6
networks.
If necessary, enter a new port number.
The listening port is the TCP port number that the controller uses to
listen for iSCSI logins from host iSCSI initiators. The default listening
port is 3260. You must enter 3260 or a value between 49152 and 65535.
