PowerProtect DD6400 System Installation and Storage Expansion Guide

Configuring the network

1. Enter yes to configure the system for network connectivity.

   Network Configuration
   Configure Network at this time (yes|no) [no]:
   yes

2. Enter yes to configure DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) to obtain network parameters (such as, the host name, domain name, and IP addresses) dynamically from a DHCP server. Or enter no to configure the parameters manually.

   Use DHCP
   Use DHCP for hostname, domainname, default gateway
   and DNS servers? (At least one interface needs to
   be configured using DHCP)  (yes|no|?)

3. Enter a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for the host name; for example, str01.yourcompany.com. Or accept the host name, if the system was able to discover it.

   Enter the hostname for this system
   (fully-qualified domain name)[]:

4. Enter the DNS (Domain Name System) domain name; for example, yourcompany.com. Or accept the domain name, if the system was able to discover it.

   Domainname
   Enter your DNS domainname []:

5. Enable and configure each Ethernet interface. Accept or decline DHCP for each interface. If the port does not use DHCP to discover network parameters automatically, enter the information manually.

   Ethernet port ethMa
   Enable Ethernet port ethMa (yes|no|?) [no]:
   yes
   
   Use DHCP on Ethernet port ethMa (yes|no|?) [no]:
    
   Enter the IP address for ethMa [192.168.10.185]:
   
   Enter the netmask for ethMa [255.255.255.0]:
   
   Ethernet port ethMb
   Enable Ethernet port ethMb (yes|no|?) [no]:
   no

6. Enter the IP address of the default routing gateway. Or accept the default gateway, if the system was able to discover it.

   Default Gateway
   Enter the default gateway IP address:
   192.168.10.1

7. Enter the IPv6 address of the default routing gateway. Or accept the IPv6 address of the default gateway, if the system was able to discover it. If IPv6 is not in use, leave the field empty, and press Enter to continue.

   IPV6 Default Gateway
   Enter the ipv6 default gateway IP address:

8. Enter up to three DNS servers to use for resolving host names to IP addresses. Use a comma-separated or space-separated list. Enter a space for no DNS servers. Or accept the IP addresses of the DNS servers, if the system was able to discover them.

   DNS Servers
   Enter the DNS Server list (zero, one, two or three IP addresses):
   192.168.10.1

9. A summary of the network settings is displayed. You can accept the settings (Save), reject the settings and exit to the CLI (Cancel), or return to the beginning of the current section and change the settings (Retry). Entering Retry displays your previous responses for each prompt. Press Return to accept the displayed value or enter a new one.
