Setting Up a One-Armed Configuration 43

You can later use the /cfg/sys/host 1/interface 1 command to view the resulting settings for Interface 1.

Note: If needed, you can later create a two-armed configuration by adding a new interface to the cluster, exclusively used for client traffic, and assign an unused port to that interface. For information about how to add a new interface, see the "Interface Configuration " section under Configuration Menu>System Configuration in the Command Reference. For information about how to assign ports to an interface, see the "Interface Ports Configuration " section in the same chapter.

4 Enter network mask and VLAN tag ID.

Enter network mask [255.255.255.0]: <Press ENTER if

correct>

Enter VLAN tag id (or zero for no VLAN) [0]: <VLAN tag

id or ENTER>

Specify the desired network mask or accept the suggested value by pressing ENTER. If a connected router or switch attaches VLAN tag IDs to incoming packets, specify the VLAN tag ID used.

5Press ENTER to continue with creating a one-armed configuration.

Setup a two armed configuration (yes/no) [no]: <Press

ENTER>

6 Enter a default gateway address.

Enter default gateway IP address (or blank to skip):

<gateway IP address>

Enter a default gateway IP address that is within the same network address range as the host IP address configured in step 3.

7Enter a Management IP address (MIP).

Enter a unique Management IP address (MIP) that is within the same network address range as the host IP address and the default gateway IP address.

Enter the Management IP (MIP) address: <IP address> Making sure the MIP does not exist...ok
