Management module IP addresses

The HP P6000 management module has an internal network and an interface to external networks.

External network interface

The external network interface communicates with devices such as:

Web browsers connected to the HP P6000 Control Panel or HP P6000 Command View

DNS servers

Routers

NTP servers

Storage administrators can enter the IP addresses for connecting to these devices using the Detailed Network Options page.

Internal network

The storage system's internal network provides communication between the storage controllers and the management module. The HP P6000 Control Panel does not allow reserved internal IP addresses to be entered for network devices. The reserved internal IP addresses vary with the version of HP

P6000 management module software as follows:

February 2010 release and later. The reserved internal IP addresses are 10.253.251.230 through 10.253.251.249.

Releases prior to February 2010. The reserved IP addresses are 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2, and 10.0.0.3. In addition, the use of IP addresses 10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255 for connecting to an external network is not supported by the management module.
