Planning a network configuration
You use the Rapid Startup Wizard to configure your storage server. This wizard is displayed
automatically when you first start your system. Before you run the Rapid Startup Wizard, it is helpful
to gather the network configuration information you need, including:
•
User name and administrator password (the system provides you with defaults you need to change)
•
E-mail addresses to set up system alerts
•
SNMP settings
•
Local area network (LAN) configuration settings
To help you gather this information, see “
