Initial Configuration for a Dedicated Service LAN
Initial Configuration for a Dedicated Service LAN
New systems are shipped with an initial set of IP addresses configured. For listing of
these initial IP addresses, see IP Addresses on page B-12.
Factory-default IP addresses for the G4SA and E4SA adapters are in the LAN
Configuration and Management Manual. IP addresses for SWAN concentrators are in
the WAN Subsystem Configuration and Management Manual.
HP recommends that you change these preconfigured IP addresses to addresses
appropriate for your LAN environment. You must change the preconfigured IP
addresses on:
•
A backup system console if you want to connect it to a dedicated service LAN that
already includes a primary system console or other system console
•
Any system console if you want to connect it to a dedicated service LAN that
already includes a primary system console
•
The MSP and Ethernet port IP addresses of any NonStop S-series server if you
want to connect it to a LAN that already includes another NonStop S-series server
Keep track of all the IP addresses in your system so that no IP address is assigned
twice.
Operating Configurations for Dedicated Service LANs
You can configure the dedicated service LAN in several different ways, as described in
the OSM Migration Guide. HP recommends that you use a fault-tolerant LAN
configuration.
For a faster configuration option for the OSM Service Connection only, see the OSM
Migration Guide.
