HP StorageWorks 8000 NAS - Manual (Page 56)

54 Configuring Your System and Network
Configuring TCP/IP Settings
Defining IP Addresses
Note If you have a high-availability NAS server, you must stop the
clustering services to edit the information.
The NAS server has one Network Interface Card (NIC) port on the
motherboard and supports two additional slots for NICs. These cards can be
either dual-port 10/100 cards or single-port gigabit cards. This support gives
the system up to five NIC ports (one on the motherboard and the capacity for
a maximum of two dual-port 10/100 NICs).
When you initially set up your NAS server, you need to configure the primary
NIC. Connect a laptop to the server management port using a null-modem
serial cable, and use terminal emulation software to log in. Access the text
interface to manually configure the primary NIC (unless you have Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol [DHCP]). You can use the Command View NAS
web interface to configure additional NICs. However, you must first configure
the network settings through the serial port or you will not be able to access
the HP NAS 8000 through the web-based user interface. See the HP
Surestore NAS 8000 Installation Guide for more information.
Note DHCP is not supported in high-availability configurations.
