PRELIMINARY
Connecting the Management
Ports to the LAN
Before You Start
To complete this procedure, you need a standard CAT 5, CAT 5e, or CAT 6 network cable
for:
Each management port on each storage system SP that you will connect to the LAN.
Each Fibre Channel switch, if you are using them, and if you want to manage with the
switch vendor s management software.
STEP 1. For each SP, connect one end of a LAN cable to the management port on the SP and the
other end to the network from which you will manage the storage system(Figure 48 or
Figure 49).
Be sure you do not connect the management LAN cable to the serial/service or UPS
ports. If you connect the management ports directly to a network switch, you must
use switch ports that support auto-negotiation or are configured for half-duplex
operation.
