Configuring IP and Netmask Information

When you configure IP and netmask information for the SilkWorm 12000, 24000, or 48000 director, it

is on a logical-switch basis. This means that for each logical switch, you must configure IP and subnet

mask information individually.

When changing the Ethernet IP/netmask, the Gateway IP, or the Fibre Channel net IP/net mask from

Web Tools, there is a normal loss of network connection to the switch. If the IP properties have

changed, you must close all current windows and restart Web Tools with the new IP address.

To configure IP and netmask information

1. Launch the Switch Admin module as described on page 4-3.

2. Click the Network tab (see Figure 4-2).

3. Type a new value in the appropriate field (for example, 10.77.77.77).

4. For the SilkWorm 12000, 24000, and 48000 directors only:

a. Click Advanced.

b. Type valid IP addresses for the Ethernet IP and subnet mask for CP0 and CP1.

c. Click OK to return to the Network tab.

5. Click Apply.

6. Exit and relaunch Web Tools to continue working.
