3. Restart network services using the following command: /etc/init.d/network restart Using A DNS Server If you are using static IP addressing: 1. In the Control Panel, select Network connections or Network and Sharing Center and then click Manage network connections. 2. Right-click the network connection you want to configure and select Properties. 3. On the General tab (for a local area connection) or the Networking tab (for all other connections), select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click Properties. 4. Select Obtain DNS server address automatically or enter the preferred and alternate DNS server IP addresses and click OK. Using A WINS Server If you are using static IP addressing: NOTE: If you are using a DHCP server to allocate WINS server IP addresses, you do not need to add WINS server addresses. 1. In the Control Panel, select Network connections. 2. Right-click the network connection you want to configure and select Properties. 3. On the General tab (for a local area connection) or the Networking tab (for all other connections), select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click Properties. 4. Select Advanced → WINS tab and click Add. 5. In the TCP/IP WINS server window, type the IP address of the WINS server and click Add. 6. To enable use of the Lmhosts file to resolve remote NetBIOS names, select Enable LMHOSTS lookup. 7. To specify the location of the file that you want to import into the Lmhosts file, select Import LMHOSTS and then select the file in the Open dialog box. 8. Enable or disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP. If using Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Core Version, use the netsh interface command to configure the iSCSI ports on the host server. Linux Host Setup To set up a Linux host network, you must configure the IP address and netmask of each iSCSI port connected to the storage array. The specific steps depend on whether you are configuring TCP/IP using DHCP or configuring TCP/IP using a static IP address. NOTE: The server IP addresses must be configured for network communication to the same IP subnet as the storage array management and iSCSI ports.

Restart network services using the following command:
/etc/init.d/network restart
Using A DNS Server
If you are using static IP addressing:
1.
In the
Control Panel
, select
Network connections or Network and Sharing Center
and then click
Manage network
connections
.
2.
Right-click the network connection you want to configure and select
Properties
.
3.
On the
General
tab (for a local area connection) or the
Networking
tab (for all other connections), select
Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP)
, and then click
Properties
.
4.
Select
Obtain DNS server address automatically
or enter the preferred and alternate DNS server IP addresses and
click
OK
.
Using A WINS Server
If you are using static IP addressing:
NOTE:
If you are using a DHCP server to allocate WINS server IP addresses, you do not need to add WINS server
addresses.
1.
In the
Control Panel
, select
Network connections
.
2.
Right-click the network connection you want to configure and select
Properties
.
3.
On the
General
tab (for a local area connection) or the

Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click
Properties
.
4.
Select
Advanced
→
WINS
tab and click
Add
.
5.
In the
TCP/IP WINS server
window, type the IP address of the WINS server and click Add.
6.
To enable use of the Lmhosts file to resolve remote NetBIOS names, select
Enable LMHOSTS lookup
.
7.
To specify the location of the file that you want to import into the
Lmhosts
file, select
Import LMHOSTS
and then
select the file in the
Open
dialog box.
8.
Enable or disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP.
If using Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Core Version, use the
netsh
interface command to configure the iSCSI ports
on the host server.
Linux Host Setup
To set up a Linux host network, you must configure the IP address and netmask of each iSCSI port connected to the
storage array. The specific steps depend on whether you are configuring TCP/IP using DHCP or configuring TCP/IP
using a static IP address.
NOTE:
The server IP addresses must be configured for network communication to the same IP subnet as the
storage array management and iSCSI ports.
Using DHCP
If you are using DHCP (root users only):
1.
Edit the
/etc/sysconfig/network
file:
