Ethernet Cables
Static or Dynamic IP Addresses
Various components within the dedicated service LAN can have static or dynamic IP
addresses. This sample shows the address in an example dedicated service LAN, but
any combination is possible:
Ethernet Cables
Ethernet connections for a dedicated service LAN require Category 5 unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) cables.
SWAN Concentrator Restriction
•
Isolate any ServerNet wide area networks (SWANs) on the system. The system
must be equipped with at least two LANs: one LAN for SWAN concentrators and
one for the dedicated service LAN.
•
Most SWAN concentrators are configured redundantly using two or more subnets.
Those subnets also must be isolated from the dedicated service LAN.
•
Do not connect SWANs on a subnet containing a DHCP.

*If both dynamic and static IP addresses are used in the LAN configuration, HP recommends that the
maintenance switches and UPSs (if the system has them) be configured with static IP addresses.
**You do not need to reconfigure the IP addresses for the TCP/IP processes.
