DR4100 Best Practice Guide | April 2014
1. Upgrade the DR appliance to the latest 2.1 firmware.
2. After the upgrade, two additional 1 GB interfaces will appear. The 10GB interfaces will be bonded as bond0.
Use the following command to view the available network interfaces:
network --show
3. Break bond0 and release eth0 from bond0 using the following command:
network -- delete --member
network – restart
4. Use the following command to view the released interface eth0:
network --show
5. Assign an IP address and DNS name to the released interfaces using the following command:
network
-‐-‐create_interface
-‐-‐nwif<
ehtN>
-‐-‐static
-‐-‐ip
name
Note: Bond0 will maintain the default name given to it at time of setup.
6. Use the following command to verify network settings:
network --show
Note: Take note of the DNS names for bond0 and for the configured 1GB interface. These DNS names are required to
force traffic to the specified interface.
7. Create two CIFS containers on the DR appliance. One container called cifs-container-1 and the other cifs-
container-2.
Example
administrator@DR>
network --delete -- member eth0
network --restart
Example
administrator@DR>
network --create_interface --nwif eth0 --static_ip x.x.x.x --netmask
