Initial Configuration for a Dedicated Service LAN
New systems are shipped with an initial set of IP addresses configured. You can change these
preconfigured IP addresses to addresses appropriate for your LAN environment. For a listing of
these initial IP addresses, see “IP Addresses” (page 167).
Factory-default IP addresses for the Ethernet ports are available from your HP service provider (in
the Versatile I/O Manual.) IP addresses for SWAN concentrators are in the WAN Subsystem
Configuration and Management Manual.
You must change the preconfigured IP addresses on:
• The backup system console so it does not conflict with the primary system console.
• Any system console if you want to add a new NonStop system to an existing maintenance
LAN.
Keep track of all the IP addresses in your system so that no IP address is assigned twice.
The NonStop Maintenance LAN DHCP DNS Configuration Wizard, a component of OSM Console
Tools software that is installed on NonStop system consoles, can be used to configure DHCP and
DNS services required on your dedicated service LAN. Most of this configuration is done by your
HP service provider during initial configuration of the dedicated service LAN, when additional
NonStop systems are added, or when adding or replacing a NonStop system console. Ask your
HP service provider to refer to the NonStop Dedicated Service LAN Installation and Configuration
Guide.
Additional Configuration for OSM
If you require a faster connection to the OSM Service Connection, see "Configuring Additional
TCP/IP Processes for OSM Connectivity," in the OSM Configuration Guide.
System Consoles for NonStop NS2200 Series Systems
NOTE: Because HP requires two sources of HSS files for NonStop NS2200 series systems, you
must have two system consoles (primary and backup) configured on the dedicated service LAN.
If you do not have a second system console available for this purpose, you must order a second
one with your system.
New system consoles are preconfigured with the required HP and third-party software. When
upgrading to the latest RVU, you can install software upgrades from the HP NonStop System
Console Installer DVD.
System console hardware for NS2200 commercial systems, including the Windows Server system
unit, monitor, and keyboard, can be mounted in the cabinet. System console hardware for the
NS2200T and NS2200ST systems must be installed outside the cabinet and require separate
provisions or furniture to hold the Windows Server hardware.
System consoles communicate with NonStop NS2200 series systems over a dedicated service
local area network (LAN) or a secure operations LAN. A dedicated service LAN is required for
use of OSM Low-Level Link functionality, which includes configuring primary and backup dial-out
points (referred to as the primary and backup system consoles, respectively).
