To modify the network settings:
1. Expand Configure Library, if necessary, and click Network in the left navigation pane of the Web
User Interface.
2. Select the Ethernet Link speed (duplex mode).
3. Select the TCP/IP settings. To enable dual IPv4/IPv6 protocol, select both Use IPv4 and Use IPv6 and
enter parameters for both.
v Security - Select Enable SSL for Web to provide secure communications between the web browser
and the tape library.
v IPv4 setting - Select Use IPv4 to enable the IPv4 Internet Protocol. Select the corresponding button
to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP) or use static IP address settings. When with DHCP,
use the Operator Panel to determine the library's assigned IP address. See “Configuring network
settings” on page 61. Enter the following parameters if with static IP address settings.
– IPv4 address - Sets the TCP/IPv4 address of the library on the network.
– Subnet mask - Defines and limits users within a local network.
– Gateway - Allows access outside the local network.
v IPv6 setting - Select Use IPv6 to enable the IPv6 Internet Protocol. Select the corresponding button
to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP), to obtain an IP address with stateless auto
configuration, or use static IP address settings. Enter the following parameter if with static IP
address settings.
– IPv6 address - Sets the TCP/IPv6 address of the library on the network.
– Prefix length - Decimal value that indicates the number of contiguous, high-order bits
comprising the network portion of the address.
– Gateway - Allows access outside the local network.
v DNS setting - Select Use DNS to use a domain name server. The DNS server, if entered, allows the
encryption, date and time, and notifications IP addresses to be specified with host names instead of
numerical IP addresses.
– DNS IP address - Sets the IP address of the DNS server.
4. Click Submit to enable the settings.
Configuring date and time settings
Configure the date and time settings with one of three methods: automatically with a remote NTP time
server on the network, automatically with the clock on your host computer, or manually.
Note: Selecting Refresh refreshes the date and time.
Note: If you choose to manually set your date and time, you must reset the date and time after the
library is power-cycled and after a library reset.
Note: When the library is power-cycled, wait 10 seconds after the power is OFF before the library is
powered ON again.
