Installing the enclosures

At the prompt, type the following command to set the values you obtained in Step 1 for each Ethernet

management port, first for controller A and then for controller B:

set network-parameters ip

address netmask netmask gateway gateway controller a|b

where:
• address is the IP address of the controller
• netmask is the subnet mask
• gateway is the IP address of the subnet router
• a|b specifies the controller whose network parameters you are setting

For example:

# set network-parameters ip 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway
192.168.0.1 controller a

# set network-parameters ip 192.168.0.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway
193.168.0.1 controller b

Type the following command to verify the new IP addresses:

show network-parameters

Network parameters, including the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address are displayed for

each controller.
a. From the CLI you can use the PING command to verify network connectivity

For example:

# ping 16.125.12.1

Info: Pinging 16.125.12.1 with 4 packets.

Success: Command completed successfully. The remote computer responded with 4 packets.

Disconnect from the CLI and exit the emulator.

In the host computer's command window, type the following command to verify Ethernet connectivity,

first for controller A and then for controller B:

ping

IP-address

If you cannot your access your system for at least three minutes after changing the IP

address, your network might require you to restart the management controller using the serial CLI. When

you restart a management controller, communication with it is temporarily lost until it successfully restarts.
Type the following command to restart the management controller on both controllers:

restart mc both
