10 Quick Start: Adding a network to an existing appliance environment

This quick start describes the process to add a network to an existing appliance environment and enable existing server blades to access the network you added.

NOTE: If you are performing initial configuration steps after installing an appliance, HP recommends that you add networks and network sets before you add enclosures. See “Quick Start: Initial Configuration” (page 91).

Prerequisites

•Minimum required privileges: Infrastructure administrator or Network administrator for adding the network.

•Minimum required privileges: Infrastructure administrator or Server administrator for changing the configurations of the server profiles.

•The enclosures and server blades are already added to the appliance.

•All data center switch ports that connect to the VC (Virtual Connect) interconnect modules are configured as described in “Data center switch port requirements” (page 115).
