Section 2: Installing the StorPoint CD

Assigning an IP Address

To establish communication with the TCP/IP network, you must assign an appropriate IP address to your StorPoint CD. For example, this is needed in order to access the StorPoint CD Web interface.

Note: ❏ Setting the IP address is not needed if you are not using IP addressing on your network, i.e. in these environments:

•Windows (SMB over NetBEUI)

•NetWare (IPX)

•Macintosh (AFP over AppleTalk)

You can then proceed directly to the appropriate network environment section of the manual.

Before You Begin Make sure the StorPoint CD is powered up and attached to the network.

IP Address Obtain an unused IP address from the Network Administrator, unless you are using DHCP on your network.

DHCP If you are using DHCP, the IP address will be set automatically as soon as you connect the StorPoint CD to the network. To find out which IP address has been assigned to your StorPoint CD, check your DHCP server. If you want to set the IP address manually, you can disable DHCP by setting the appropriate configuration parameter.

System Privileges You will need root privileges on your UNIX system and administrator privileges on Windows NT.

Ethernet Address Depending on the method you are using, you will need to know the Ethernet address of your StorPoint CD. The Ethernet address is the same as the serial number.

You will find the serial number on the labels at the underside of the unit and at the back of the tower.

00408C3E5207

Important! ❏ Do not use the default or example IP address when installing your StorPoint CD. Always consult the Network Administrator before assigning an IP address.
