• An RJ45 10/100BaseT Ethernet port lets you connect the controller to a network to enable
out-of-band management and monitoring using the embedded StorView GUI software.
• There is also an RS232 socket which provides an alternative user interface to the RJ45
connector.
The recommended configurations are shown in “Ethernet connection” on page 24 and “Enclosure
cabling - multiple enclosures” on page 25.
StorView
Management software
The StorView Storage Management software which is embedded in the controller module is a
full-featured, graphical, HTML-based software suite designed to configure, manage, and monitor
the controller module storage solution. The module is configured with a base IP address to let you
connect to it. See “StorView Storage Management software” on page 29 or the Gateway E-842R
StorView Storage Management Software User Guide for further information.
Important
Only shielded, Cat 5 (or better) cables should be used for connection to the
Ehternet port for EMC performance.
Caution
Although the RS232 port is similar in appearance to a USB port, it requires a
special cable and you should not attach a USB cable to it.
