Verify that the information is correct. If DHCP is enabled, the network interface information was acquired from the DHCP server. NOTE: You can use either IPv4 or IPv6 with a classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) block notation to set up your IP addresses. Setting static Ethernet addresses Use static Ethernet network interface addresses on HP StorageWorks 2/128, 4/256 SAN Director, DC Director models, and in environments where DHCP service is not available. To use static addresses for the Ethernet interface, you must first disable DHCP. You may enter static Ethernet information and disable DHCP at the same time. See "Activating DHCP" on page 29 for more information. If you choose not to use DHCP or specify an IP address for your switch Ethernet interface, you can do so by entering none or 0.0.0.0 in the Ethernet IP address field. IMPORTANT: IP address 0.0.0.0 is not supported in Fabric OS versions earlier than 5.2.0. On the iSCSI Director (FC4-16IP) and B-Series MP Router (FR4-18i) blades, configure the two external Ethernet interfaces to two different subnets, or if two subnets are not present, configure one of the interfaces and leave the other unconfigured. Otherwise the following message will show up and also blade status may go into a faulty state after a reboot. Neighbor table overflow. print: 54 messages suppressed To set static addresses for the Ethernet network interface: 1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Issue the ipaddrset command to set the IPv4 address: switch:admin> ipaddrset Ethernet IP Address [192.168.74.102]: Ethernet Subnetmask [255.255.255.0]: Fibre Channel IP Address [220.220.220.2]: Fibre Channel Subnetmask [255.255.0.0]: Gateway IP Address [192.168.74.1]: DHCP [OFF]: off or to set an IPv6 address on a switch: switch:admin> ipaddrset -ipv6 --add 1080::8:800:200C:417A/64 IP address is being changed...Done. 28 Standard features

If the Ethernet IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address are displayed, the network interface is
configured. Verify that the information is correct. If DHCP is enabled, the network interface information
was acquired from the DHCP server.
NOTE:
You can use either IPv4 or IPv6 with a classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) block notation to set
up your IP addresses.
Setting static Ethernet addresses
Use static Ethernet network interface addresses on HP StorageWorks 2/128, 4/256 SAN Director, DC
Director models, and in environments where DHCP service is not available. To use static addresses for the
Ethernet interface, you must first disable DHCP. You may enter static Ethernet information and disable
DHCP at the same time. See ”
Activating DHCP
” on page 29 for more information.
If you choose not to use DHCP or specify an IP address for your switch Ethernet interface, you can do so by
entering none or 0.0.0.0 in the Ethernet IP address field.
IMPORTANT:
IP address 0.0.0.0 is not supported in Fabric OS versions earlier than 5.2.0.
On the
iSCSI Director
(
FC4-16IP
) and B-Series MP Router

blades, configure the two external Ethernet
interfaces to two different subnets, or if two subnets are not present, configure one of the interfaces and
leave the other unconfigured. Otherwise the following message will show up and also blade status may go
into a faulty state after a reboot.

To set static addresses for the Ethernet network interface:
1.
Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
