NOTE: Before powering on the PowerVault 35F, make sure all the devices on each SCSI bus are powered on and
have finished performing their self tests. The devices on your Fibre Channel Storage Area Network should be powered

Configuring the PowerVault 35F's Ethernet Port
If you plan to use Ethernet to configure the PowerVault 35F, you must first set up serial communications with the
PowerVault 35F to configure the Ethernet port's address.
The PowerVault 35F provides an Ethernet port for connection to a standard 10BaseT Ethernet network. You can use
Ethernet to perform the following activities:
Configure the PowerVault 35F through Telnet. The configuration menus accessed via the serial port will be
disabled when a Telnet session is connected. When logging in for a Telnet session, the default user name is
"root" and the default password is "password".
Upgrading the PowerVault 35F's firmware. You can use FTP or TFTP to send a new firmware image to the
PowerVault 35F.
NOTE: The PowerVault 35F only supports a 10BaseT Ethernet network connector. 100BaseT Ethernet is not
supported.
If you plan to use the Ethernet port, you must first configure its address. You can set the IP address and IP subnet
mask. The IP address is used to route information in a TCP/IP network. The IP subnet mask is used to establish a path
to a default TCP/IP gateway.
To change the Ethernet IP address or IP subnet mask, select 1) Ethernet/SNMP Configuration from the
Configuration menu.
NOTE: The bridge must be rebooted for the new IP address to take effect.
