You cannot configure the security settings from the Web client. The path

to open the appropriate screen is as follows:

• From the operator panel, select

Tools > Security

Configuring the Internal Network

Use the

Internal Network Configuration

screen to configure your library’s

internal network setting. The default internal network address is

10.10.10.X

The library’s internal network enables communication among library

components. While rare, it is possible that the default addressing of the

internal network could conflict with your network, potentially causing

the library to become confused. When installing the PowerVault ML6000

library, make sure that the external network setting is different from the

internal network setting on the library. If DHCP is enabled or you do not

know what your external network setting is, check with your network

administrator.

From the operator panel, administrators can change the setting of the

internal network using the

Internal Network Configuration

screen. Select

the new internal IP address from the list on the screen. You can select

from nine IP addresses.
The

Internal Network Configuration

screen is only accessible from the

operator panel. The path to open the appropriate screen is as follows:

• From the operator panel, select

Tools > Internal Network

Note:

This setting differs from enabling the SMI-S service in the

Tools > System Settings

menu (see

and the SMI-S service must be enabled.

Caution:

Do not change the library’s internal IP address during

backup/restore operations.
