Step 1: Discover the Storage Array (Out-of-band

Management Only)

Default Management IPv4 Port Settings

By default, the storage array management ports are set to Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol (DHCP). If the controller(s) on your storage array is

unable to get IP configuration from a DHCP server, it times out after

approximately three minutes and falls back to a default static IP address. The

default IP configuration is:
Controller 0: IP: 192.168.128.101 Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0

Controller 1: IP: 192.168.128.102 Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0

NOTE:

No default gateway is set.

NOTE:

If DHCP is not used, perform the initial configuration using the management

station on the same physical subnet as the storage array. Additionally, during initial

configuration, configure at least one network adapter on the same IP subnet as the

storage array’s default management port (192.168.128.101 or 192.168.128.102). After

initial configuration (management ports are configured using MD Storage

Manager), you can change the management station’s IP address back to its

previous settings.

Default Management IPv6 Port Settings

By default, the storage array management ports are enabled for IPv6 stateless

auto-configuration. The ports are automatically configured to respond to

their link local address and to a routable address if a configured IPv6 router is

present on the network. To know the link local addresses of the management

port, see the MAC label for the management port on the controller. For

example:

1 If the MAC Address is 00:08:74:AA:BB:CC, the link local address starts

with FE80::02.

2 Add the second and third bytes 08:74 MAC address to the prefix

FE80::0208:744.

3 Add FF:FE to obtain FE80::0200:08FF:FE.
