LAN Configuration
.Before you can access the Disk Array Administrator software using the Ethernet port, you must set up
each SM module for TCP/IP. The following sections describe the TCP/IP setup.
A SM module that is part of a TCP/IP network requires three basic IP configuration elements: IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway IP address. The SM module’s IP address must be unique to the
network in which the SM module resides. If the SM module is part of a publicly routed network (that is,
attached to the Internet), the address must be globally unique.
This appendix describes how to configure the TCP/IP settings for the first time starting from the factory-
set defaults.
H.1 Configuring the SM for TCP/IP
Before you can access the Disk Array Administrator software using the Ethernet port, you must set the
IP address and subnet mask for the SM module. The default IP address is 10.0.0.1. You can do this by
one of the following ways:
• Setting up your computer with an IP address that is compatible with the SM module default of
10.0.0.1, such as 10.0.0.42.
• Using the serial connection to the SM module and setting the address. See H.2.1, ”Configuring the
IP Settings”, on page 214.
