Requirements
Each IP4700 and DAE on a back-end loop needs a unique enclosure
address (EA) that identifies the enclosure and determines disk
module addresses. The IP4700 has a fixed EA of 0 that you cannot
change. If you cable any DAEs to the IP4700, you might want to set
the EA on the first DAE (the one closest to the IP4700) to 1, the next to
2, and so on. The enclosure address is displayed in lights visible
behind the front door, shown in Figure 2-4.
