Network interface configuration
Configuring network interfaces involves assigning IP addresses, setting network parameters and hardware-dependent values, specifying network interfaces, and viewing your storage system's network configuration.
When you configure network interfaces, you can do any or all of the following:
•
Assign an IP address to a network interface.
•
Set parameters such as network mask, broadcast address.
•
Set hardware-dependent values such as media type, MTU size, and flow control.
•
Specify whether the interface should be attached to a network with firewall security protection.
•
Specify whether the network interface must be registered with Windows Internet Name Services (WINS), if CIFS is running and at least one WINS server has been configured.
•
Specify the IP address of an interface or specify the interface name on an active/active configuration partner for takeover mode.
•
View the current configuration of a specific interface or all interfaces that exist on your storage system.
