3. Install the control module in the array. See Installing a Control Module on page 27.
4. Make sure the control module is operational. See Interpreting Control Module LEDs on page 19.
Advanced Networking Options
In addition to connecting all the Ethernet ports on both control modules to network switches, you can also
optionally connect the Management port to a separate network switch.
Configuring a management port enables you to separate management traffic (creating and managing the group,
members, volumes, replication, and so on) from the iSCSI data traffic (I/O between applications and volumes,
and between replication partners).
Configuring the Management Port
Configuring the 10/100Mbps management port involves hardware steps and software steps. The management
port is restricted to group management traffic only; it will not carry iSCSI I/O.
