Figure 7 Cabling an additional network
1.
Connect 10 GbE Public 1 (Blade 1) and 10 GbE Public 2 (Blade 2) to the same subnet in
your network infrastructure. Note that adapters were chosen on different pass-through modules.
This prevents the pass-through module from becoming a single point of failure for the connection
between the two nodes.
or
2.
Connect 1 GbE Public 4 (Blade 1) and 1 GbE Public 4 (Blade 2) to the same subnet in your
network infrastructure.
In later configuration steps you can configure the adapters you have connected to your network.
If you have connected to a DHCP-enabled network, no further configuration is necessary. Otherwise,
you must assign static addresses to the adapters. You may also want to rename the adapters to
reflect their use in your environment. Also note that these are only two examples out of many
networking possibilities. NIC teaming may also be used. It is not necessary to make all these
decisions now, because you can always add more networks after the system has been deployed.
The Enclosure Manager and iLO port (6,
network infrastructure to the Enclosure Manager Unit (EMU) and to the iLO on each blade. For
ease of setup, the EMU and each iLO processor have been assigned static IP addresses in the
factory. You use these addresses to make an initial connection, and then configure each to connect
to your network. The factory configured addresses are as follows:

Power on the storage system
1.
Power on disk enclosures, if any.
2.
Power on the storage system by pushing the power button on the back of the chassis.
Once the storage system power is on, power on the server blades if they do not automatically
power on.
