Figure 9. Installing the front bezel
Connect a Windows-based computer to your storage
system
NOTE:
At the end of the power-up process, the SP Fault LED blinks in intervals of amber for one second and then blue for
three seconds, indicating that the system is ready to run the Connection Utility.
You must connect a Windows-based computer to your system directly or remotely over a subnetwork. This computer will be
used to continue setting up your system and must be on the same subnet as the storage system to complete the initialization.
NOTE:
Check to see if there is security software running on your workstation/laptop such as Cisco Security Agent or
McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention Service that may prevent the initialized system from being detected. If there is, disable it
(Windows Services) before running the initialization.
The system management ports support both IPv4 and IPv6. You can assign an IP address to a system in the following ways:
● If you are running the storage system on a dynamic network that includes a DHCP server and a DNS server, the
management IP address can be assigned automatically.
● If you are not running the storage system in a network that supports DHCP or you would rather manually assign a static IP
address, you must install and run the Connection Utility on the Windows-based computer.
Dynamic IP addresses (DHCP) should not be used for any components of the EMC Secure Remote Services Virtual Edition
(ESRS VE) servers, Policy Manager servers, or managed devices.
NOTE:
If you use DHCP to assign IP addresses to any EMC Secure Remote Services (ESRS) components (ESRS Virtual
Edition servers, Policy Manager, or managed devices), they must have static IP addresses. Leases for the IP addresses that
Dell EMC devices use cannot be set to expire. It is recommended that you assign static IP addresses to those devices you
plan to have managed by ESRS.
Automatically assigning a dynamic storage system
management port IP address
About this task
Assigning an IP address to a storage system management port dynamically requires the following:
● Network DNS server (with dynamic DNS services enabled)
● Network DHCPv4 server and/or a DHCPv6 server and/or a router advertising DNS servers
