IBM DS4700 manual Cabling the storage subsystem

You can either use the default controller Ethernet IP addresses for out-of-band connection or change the default controller Ethernet IP addresses by using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or Storage Manager client. Refer to the DS4000 Storage Manager Installation, User's and Maintenance Guide for the appropriate operating system for more information on setting the management connections and installing the DS4000 storage subsystem management software.

For a listing of default IP addresses, see “Connectors, switch, and enclosure ID” on page 8.

Note: Do not connect the storage subsystem Ethernet ports to a public network or public subnet. It is strongly recommended that you create a private network between the storage subsystem and the management station.
