Configuration Planning Tasks 6 • If installing products and the management server on a dedicated (private) LAN segment, there is no requirement to change any default network addresses. However, if multiple equipment cabinets are connected, ensure all managed products and servers have unique IP addresses. If new IP addresses are required, consult with the customer's network administrator. • If installing products and the management server on a public LAN containing other devices, default network addresses may require change to avoid address conflicts with existing devices. For Intrepid-series directors, Sphereon-series fabric switches, and Eclipse-series SAN routers, the IP address, gateway address, and subnet mask are changed through a remote terminal connected to the product's maintenance port. For the management server, these addresses are changed through the liquid crystal display (LCD) front panel. In addition, assign and record a unique domain name system (DNS) name for the management server and each director or switch. • Gateway addresses may need to be configured for managed products and the management server if these devices connect to the LAN through a router or other gateway device. The Ethernet connections for the 1U management server, directors, fabric switches, and SAN routers have the following default network addresses: • 1U Management server: - Media access control (MAC) address is unique for each server and managed product. The address is in xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx format, where each xx is a hexadecimal pair. - IP address of the private LAN connection (LAN 2) is 10.1.1.1. - IP address of the public LAN connection (LAN 1) is 192.168.0.1. - Subnet mask is 255.0.0.0. - Gateway address is blank. 6-8 McDATA Products in a SAN Environment - Planning Manual
