PRELIMINARY
This configuration requires a NIC connection; iSCSI HBAs qualified on
SSR212PP-Series systems do not support management input/output.

The private network must be on a different subnet from the public LAN.
Advantages
Improved security: System management requires a connection to the private network.
Simplified network setup: All of the storage system ports are on the private network,
so you need to assign only one set of addresses on a single subnet. A network
administrator aware of all available addresses must assign any addresses required for
the public network from a smaller pool.
Simplified troubleshooting: Since everything is on a dedicated private network, you
have fewer variables to consider when issues arise.
