Important
When you are using DianaScope, the last numeric value of the IP address of a
floating IP (active EM) must be multiples of 4 (e.g., 192.168.1.4 and 192.168.1.8).
Hint
By specifying a floating IP (active EM) by the SET NETWORK
ADDRESSRANGE command, consecutive numbers are automatically
allocated to IP addresses of the floating IP (standby-EM), static IP address (EM
card slot 1), and static IP address (EM card slot 2). Reserve four consecutive IP
addresses in advance.
By specifying the IP address of the CPU blade (slot 1) by the SET NETWORK
ADDRESSRANGE command, consecutive numbers are automatically
allocated to the IP addresses of the CPU blades (Slot2~16) and switch modules
(Slot1~8). Reserve twenty-four consecutive IP addresses in advance.
"Consecutive numbers" means values consecutive by the decimal number (e.g.,
"10.0.0.254" and "10.0.0.255" are "consecutive numbers" but "10.0.0.255" and
"10.0.1.0" are not).
Some modules might not support or may disable the DHCP client function. In
this case, the IP address that is configured using the SET NETWORK
ADDRESSRANGE command is not allocated to a module. Configure each IP
address on the module or enable the DHCP client function if it is disabled. For
details, refer to the User's Guide of the module. Some modules do not require
IP address configuration.
It may take a couple of minutes for a module to acquire an IP address
configured by the SET NETWORK ADDRESSRANGE command. Use the
SHOW SERVER LIST command and the SHOW SWITCH INFO command
for CPU blades and switch modules respectively to check that the module has
acquired the configured IP address. For more information on the commands,
refer to "Commands."
It may take some time until the IP address is reflected in the switch module by
the DHCP function after performing the SET NETWORK ADDRESS RANGE
command. In this case, restart the switch module. Then, the IP address
configured by an EM card is allocated to the switch module.(For information on
how to restart a switch module, refer to RESTART SWITCH command of
"Commands" or the User's Guide of the switch module. For a CPU blade, if
the settings are changed, a process to reallocate an IP address is executed so
that the new IP address is set after a while. However, if the User's Guide of the
CPU blade has different instructions, follow those instructions.
When setting the DHCP function on a module to enabled or disabled, it may
take a couple of minutes for the module to acquire an IP address which is set by
the SET NETWORK ADDRESS RANGE command. If the IP address is not
allocated to the module after a while, restart the EM card by performing the
"RESTART EM" command on a CLI.
The IP address allocated to each module by the SET NETWORK
ADDRESSRANGE command is enabled in the management LAN. For settings
of IP addresses on the user LAN, see the User's Guides of your blade and
switch modules.
The IP address configured by the SET NETWORK ADDRESSRANGE
command is reserved for a slot if there is no module on the slot or a module on
the slot does not require IP address settings. It is recommended not to configure
the same IP address as the reserved one for any other network machine.
Generally, a pass-through card is a module that does not require IP address
settings. Depending on the pass-through card, you may find a different
description from the one in this manual in the User's Guide of the pass-through
card.
