Setting Description
int-a network settings
● Netmask
● IP range
The int-a network settings are for communication between nodes.
The int-a network must be configured with IPv4.
The int-a network must be on a separate subnet from an int-b/failover
network.
int-b/failover network settings
● Netmask
● IP range
● Failover IP range
The int-b/failover network settings are optional. The int-b network is
for communication between nodes, and provides redundancy with the
int-a network.
The int-b network must be configured with IPv4.
The int-a and int-b networks must be on separate subnets.
The failover IP range is a virtual IP range that is resolved to either of
the active ports during failover.
External network settings
● Netmask
● MTU
● IP range
The external network settings are for client access to the cluster. The
25 Gb, and 100 Gb ports can be configured from the wizard.
The default external network can be configured with IPv4 or IPv6
addresses.
The MTU choices are 1500 or 9000.
Configure the external network with IPv6 addresses by entering an
integer less than 128 for the netmask value. The standard external
netmask value for IPv6 addresses is 64. If you enter a netmask value
with dot-decimal notation, use IPv4 addresses for the IP range.
In the configuration wizard, the following options are available:
Configure external subnet
[ 1] 25gige-1 - External interface
[Enter] Exit configuring external
network.
Configure external subnet >>>
Or
Configure external subnet
[ 1] 100gige-1 - External interface
[Enter] Exit configuring external
network.
Configure external subnet >>>
NOTE: The 100gige is an option on F900 and F600 nodes.
Default gateway The IP address of the optional gateway server through which the
cluster communicates with clients outside the subnet. Enter an IPv4
or IPv6 address, depending on how the external network is configured.
SmartConnect settings
● SmartConnect zone name
● SmartConnect service IP
SmartConnect balances client connections across nodes in a cluster.
Information about configuring SmartConnect is available in the OneFS
Administration Guide.
DNS settings
● DNS servers
● DNS search domains
The DNS settings are for the cluster.
Enter a comma-separated list to specify multiple DNS servers or
search domains. Enter IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, depending on how you
configured the external network settings.
Date and time settings
● Time zone
● Day and time
The day and time settings are for the cluster.
