The Vess R2000 subsystem has a virtual management port, enabling you to log into a Vess R2000 with dual
controllers using one IP address.
Before you change settings, please see "About IP Addresses" on page 110.
You initially made these settings during subsystem setup. You can change them later as required.
Caution
Changing virtual management port settings can interrupt your network connection
and require you to log in again.
