NOTE: To use the DHCP feature, a DHCP server must be operational on the Ethernet network. If the DHCP feature is used when there is not DHCP server, the standard for DHCP requires the interface card wait three minutes for a response from a DHCP server before timing out.
Some DHCP servers allow an extended lease reservation to be set up for an IP address by providing the server with the Ethernet MAC address. The DHCP server always provides the same IP address to the interface card. This setup can be useful for remote management of the interface card via Telnet or VM. Because the method of setting up an extended lease reservation varies, depending on the DHCP server being used. Contact the Network Administrator for assistance.
Active fabric configuration
The Active Fabric (AF) screen allows setup of a fibre target LUN for the interface card (see Figure 20). Figure 20 Active Fabric screen

Active Fabric settings:
•ServerFree Backup Mode: NOT Supported
•Number of Controller LUNs: (default: 1) sets the number of controller LUNs reported by the interface card. The number must be in the range of 0 through 4.
