Connecting the network cables
The networking ports are accessed on the rear panel of the device. The remote management port is for use by Veritas Technical Support staff or by approved field service technicians.
The following picture shows the layout of the network ports. It includes the four 1 Gb Ethernet ports on the right and the two 10 Gb Ethernet ports on the left.
The remote management (IPMI) port is located to the left of the 1 Gb Ethernet ports.
By default, NIC1 (eth0) is factory set to IP address 192.168.229.233. This private network address is reserved to provide a direct connection from a laptop to perform the initial configuration. NIC1 (eth0) is typically not connected to your network environment.
Once the initial configuration has been completed, you can connect NIC1 (eth0) to an administrative network that does not provide any backup data transfer.
