Configuring network settings
The chassis contains a Silcon management card that provides
the network interface. You must configure the network settings of this management card before it can function on a network.
The required settings are:
•IP address of the Silcon management card
•Subnet Mask
•IP address of the default Gateway
Note: Before you begin configuring network settings, you will need the MAC address from the Quality Assurance Slip included with your chassis.
