User Guide
5.5 Initial Network Configuration
This section outlines the behavior of the OpenFlex Data24 3200 when it is connected to a network.
The RJ45 management ports and the QSFP28 data ports are designed to default to DHCP to assign IP
addresses. If the network uses a DHCP server to perform network discovery, the platform will be configured
with the settings generated by the DHCP server using the host naming conventions outlined in the following
sections.
If there is no DHCP server available on the network to configure the platform, the platform will fall back to
static link-local addresses in the 169.254.x.x/16 IP range for the IOM data and management ports. The initial
network configuration will require local access through the RJ45 management port to a direct-connect host
or laptop. Connecting in this way will allow users to apply their own desired network settings.
Enclosure ID and Link Local Address Patterns and Examples
The enclosure manager (EM) will configure a name and ID for the platform itself. The following list displays
the default naming pattern of the Platform ID and Name that can be used to access management features
and allow users to configure the platform for use.
• Enclosure ID - openflex-data24-3200-<serial number>
• Enclosure Name - openflex-data24-3200-<serial number>
The following table displays the IOM Port naming pattern.

5.6 Setting Static IPs on Data Ports
This task provides instructions for setting static IP Addresses on data ports.
By default, the OpenFlex Data24 3200 is set to use DHCP to assign IPv4 addresses to all of the adapter
data ports. This procedure shows how to use the OCGUI to set the adapter ports to static IP addresses.
