Steps
1. Configure an IPv4 address on the management network (Bond1G) on one NetApp HCI storage node.
If you are using DHCP on the management network, you can connect to the DHCP-
acquired IPv4 address of the storage system.
a. Plug in a keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) to the back of one storage node.
b. Configure the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for Bond1G in the user interface. You
can also configure a VLAN ID for the Bond1G network.
2. Using a supported web browser (Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, or Microsoft Edge), navigate to the
NetApp Deployment Engine by connecting to the IPv4 address that you configured in Step 1.
3. Use the NetApp Deployment Engine user interface (UI) to configure NetApp HCI.
