Step 1: Discover the Storage Array (Out-of-band Management Only) Default Management 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 10 seconds 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, initial configuration using the management station must be performed on the same physical subnet as the storage array. Additionally, during initial configuration, at least one network adapter must be configured 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), the management station's IP address can be changed back to its previous settings. NOTE: This procedure applies to out-of-band management only. If you choose to set up in-band management, you must complete this step and then see "Step 8: (Optional) Set Up In-Band Management" on page 72. You can discover the storage array either automatically or manually. Select one and complete the steps below. 54 Appendix-Manual Configuration

Appendix—Manual Configuration
Step 1: Discover the Storage Array (Out-of-band
Management Only)
Default Management 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 10
seconds 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, initial configuration using the management station must
be performed on the same physical subnet as the storage array. Additionally, during
initial configuration, at least one network adapter must be configured 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), the management station’s IP address can be changed back
to its previous settings.
NOTE:
This procedure applies to out-of-band management only. If you choose to
set up in-band management, you must complete this step and then see "Step 8:
(Optional) Set Up In-Band Management" on page 72.
You can discover the storage array either automatically or manually. Select
one and complete the steps below.
