General guidelines Single node StoreOnce appliances have a factory default network configuration where the first 1GbE port (Port 1 /eth0) is enabled in DHCP mode. This enables quick access to the StoreOnce CLI and Management GUI for customers using networks with DHCP servers and DNS lookup because the appliance hostname is printed on a label on the appliance itself. The default bonding mode is Mode 1. Mode 6 bonding provides port failover and load balancing across the physical ports. There is no need for any network switch configuration in this mode. This network bonding mode requires that the same switch is used for each network port or that spanning tree protocol is enabled, if separate switches are used for each port. If external switch ports are configured for LACP (Mode 4) bonding and Mode 6 bonding is required, then LACP must be un-configured. Network configuration on StoreOnce Backup systems is performed via the CLI Management interface. For detailed information about configuring network bonding modes, please refer to the HP StoreOnce 2620, 4210/4220 and 4420/4430 Backup system Installation and Configuration guide.
