Chapter 8 Installing the Level 10R Storage System
Example of Level 10R names and IP addresses
Setting up host tables
The hosts file is used by the control network and the streaming/FTP network to
determine the IP address of devices on the network when only a the device name
(hostname) is given. The steps that follow describe how to edit the hosts file located
at C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts on Windows XP and Windows 2003
Server operating system computers. If you include the names and addresses of all the
devices on the network, then you can copy the same file onto all the other K2 devices
instead of editing the hosts file on each K2 device.
For FTP transfers on a K2 Storage System, transfers go to/from K2 Media Servers that
have the role of FTP server. No transfers go directly to/from the shared storage K2
Media Clients that are on the K2 Storage System. So in the hosts file, you must add
the “he_0” extension to a K2 Media Server hostname and associate that hostname
with the K2 Media Server’s FTP/streaming network IP address.
