2. In the upper section of the panel, set the port-specific options: • IP Address. For IPv4 or IPv6, the port IP address. For corresponding ports in each controller, assign one port to one subnet and the other port to a second subnet. Ensure that each iSCSI host port in the storage system is assigned a different IP address. For example, in a system using IPv4: • Controller A port 3: 10.10.10.100 • Controller A port 4: 10.11.10.120 • Controller B port 3: 10.10.10.110 • Controller B port 4: 10.11.10.130 • Netmask. For IPv4, subnet mask for assigned port IP address. The default is 255.255.255.0. • Gateway. For IPv4, gateway IP address for assigned port IP address. The default is 0.0.0.0. • Default Router. For IPv6, default router for assigned port IP address. If the gateway was set for IPv4 and then ports were switched to IPv6, the default is ::IPv4-address; otherwise, the default is :: (the short form of all zeroes). • Link-Local Address. For IPv6, the link-local address that is automatically generated from the MAC address and assigned to the port. CAUTION: Changing IP settings can cause data hosts to lose access to the storage system. 3. Click Next to continue. Step 8: Confirming configuration changes Confirm that the values listed in the wizard panel are correct. • If they are not correct, click Previous to return to previous steps and make necessary changes. • If they are correct, click Finish to apply the setting changes and finish the wizard. Installing a license A license is required to expand Snapshot limits and to use Replication. The license is specific to a controller enclosure serial number and firmware version. If a permanent license is not installed and you want to try these features before buying a permanent license, you can create a temporary license one time. A temporary license will expire 60 days from the time it is created. After creating a temporary license, each time you sign in to the SMU, a message specifies the time remaining in the trial period. If you do not install a permanent license before the temporary license expires, you cannot create new items with these features; however, you can continue to use existing snapshots and create new snapshots up to the base maximum limit. After a temporary license is created or a permanent license is installed, the option to create a temporary license is no longer displayed. To view information about system licenses In the Configuration View panel, right-click the system and select Tools > Install License. The System Licenses table shows the following information about licensed features: • Feature. The name of the licensed feature. • Base. Either: • The number of components that users can create without a license. • N/A. Not applicable. • License. Either: • The number of user-created components that the installed license supports. • Enabled or Disabled. Installing a license 39

In the upper section of the panel, set the port-specific options:
IP Address. For IPv4 or IPv6, the port IP address. For corresponding ports in each controller, assign one port to
one subnet and the other port to a second subnet. Ensure that each iSCSI host port in the storage system is
assigned a different IP address. For example, in a system using IPv4:
Controller A port 3: 10.10.10.100
Controller A port 4: 10.11.10.120
Controller B port 3: 10.10.10.110
Controller B port 4: 10.11.10.130
Netmask. For IPv4, subnet mask for assigned port IP address. The default is 255.255.255.0.
Gateway. For IPv4, gateway IP address for assigned port IP address. The default is 0.0.0.0.
Default Router. For IPv6, default router for assigned port IP address. If the gateway was set for IPv4 and then
ports were switched to IPv6, the default is
::
IPv4-address
; otherwise, the default is
::
(the short form of
all zeroes).
Link-Local Address. For IPv6, the link-local address that is automatically generated from the MAC address and
assigned to the port.
CAUTION:
Changing IP settings can cause data hosts to lose access to the storage system.

Installing a license
A license is required to expand Snapshot limits and to use Replication. The license is specific to a controller enclosure
serial number and firmware version.
If a permanent license is not installed and you want to try these features before buying a permanent license, you can
create a temporary license one time. A temporary license will expire 60 days from the time it is created. After
creating a temporary license, each time you sign in to the SMU, a message specifies the time remaining in the trial
period. If you do not install a permanent license before the temporary license expires, you cannot create new items
with these features; however, you can continue to use existing snapshots and create new snapshots up to the base
maximum limit.
After a temporary license is created or a permanent license is installed, the option to create a temporary license is no
longer displayed.
To view information about system licenses
In the Configuration View panel, right-click the system and select
Tools > Install License
.
The System Licenses table shows the following information about licensed features:
Feature. The name of the licensed feature.
Base. Either:
The number of components that users can create without a license.
N/A. Not applicable.
License. Either:
The number of user-created components that the installed license supports.
Enabled or Disabled.
