Intel SSR212PP manual Administration Worksheet, Storage System Management Ports

Administration Worksheet

The accompanying Administration Worksheet contains the following blanks that you will need to fill in:

Storage system management port

Storage system iSCSI port

Initiator iSCSI port

Storage System Management Ports

The storage system can have two management ports, one per storage processor (SP). Plan the network and security characteristics for each management port and record the data on the accompanying Administration Worksheet. Use the A section to record network information for the management interface. Your network administrator should provide this information.

IP address The static network IP (Internet Protocol) address (for example, 128.222.78.10) for communication with a management port of a storage processor (SP A or SP B). Each SP has one management port. Make sure that your assigned addresses do not conflict with other devices on the corporate network.

Subnet mask The subnet mask for the local area network (LAN) to which the storage system is connected for management, for example, 255.255.255.0.

Gateway The gateway address for the LAN to which the storage system management port is connected.

Username A valid username for logging in to the management interface must start with a letter and may contain 1 to 32 letters and numbers. The name may not contain punctuation, spaces, or special characters. You can use uppercase and lowercase characters. Usernames are case-sensitive. For example, ABrown is a different username from abrown.

Password A password for logging in to the management interface may contain 1 to 32 characters, consisting of uppercase and lowercase letters and SSR212PP-Series numbers. As with the username, passwords are case- sensitive. For example, Azure23 differs from azure23. The password is valid only for the username you specified.

Storage System iSCSI Data Ports

Plan the network and security characteristics for each iSCSI data port and record the data in the B section on the Administration Worksheet. Use the DATA port section to record network information for the iSCSI data ports. Your network administrator should provide this information.

IP address

The static network IP address of the storage system port (for example, 128.222.78.10). This is a iSCSI data port on SP A or SP B. Each SP has two iSCSI data ports.

It is recommended to use these standard Internet addresses for private networks between iSCSI data ports and their corresponding network interface cards and/or host bus adapters:
