2. In the upper section of the panel, set the port-specific options:
• IP Address. For IPv4 or IPv6, the port IP address. For corresponding ports in each controller, assign one port to
one subnet and the other port to a second subnet. Ensure that each iSCSI host port in the storage system is
assigned a different IP address. For example, in a system using IPv4:
• Controller A port 3: 10.10.10.100
• Controller A port 4: 10.11.10.120
• Controller B port 3: 10.10.10.110
• Controller B port 4: 10.11.10.130
• Netmask. For IPv4, subnet mask for assigned port IP address. The default is 255.255.255.0.
• Gateway. For IPv4, gateway IP address for assigned port IP address. The default is 0.0.0.0.
• Default Router. For IPv6, default router for assigned port IP address. If the gateway was set for IPv4 and then
ports were switched to IPv6, the default is ::IPv4-address; otherwise, the default is :: (the short form of
all zeroes).
• Link-Local Address. For IPv6, the link-local address that is automatically generated from the MAC address and
assigned to the port.
CAUTION: Changing IP settings can cause data hosts to lose access to the storage system.

Installing a license
A license is required to expand Snapshot limits and to use Replication. The license is specific to a controller enclosure
serial number and firmware version.
If a permanent license is not installed and you want to try these features before buying a permanent license, you can
create a temporary license one time. A temporary license will expire 60 days from the time it is created. After
creating a temporary license, each time you sign in to the SMU, a message specifies the time remaining in the trial
period. If you do not install a permanent license before the temporary license expires, you cannot create new items
with these features; however, you can continue to use existing snapshots and create new snapshots up to the base
maximum limit.
After a temporary license is created or a permanent license is installed, the option to create a temporary license is no
longer displayed.
