3-10 HP Netserver AA Solution Installation Guide
Installing Network Software on the IOPs
Before you begin to install network software on the IOPs, rename all network adapters to
correspond to their function in the Endurance server. Later, when configuring Ethernet adapters,
this will make it easier for you to select the desired adapters from a list.
To rename your adapters, on the Network and Dial-up Connection screen, right click on each
adapter, and rename it. We recommend the following names:
Connection Name Description Notes
• IL adapter for the adapter that services the IOP
Link
• Redirected Ethernet
adapter 1
for all Ethernet adapters that provide
public LAN connectivity for the CEs
There can be up to four
redirected Ethernet
adapters. Name them as
shown, consecutively:
1,2,3, and 4.
• Virtual Network adapter IOP1 for the Virtual LAN between the IOP and
CEs
Name the Virtual
Network adapter in IOP1
as shown. Replace
IOP1 with IOP2 in the
name for the Virtual
Network adapter in
IOP2.
• IOP Ethernet adapter for any network adapter not configured
for the IL or as a redirected adapter
