Planning Worksheet
With your network administrator, determine the IP addresses and network parameters you plan to use 
with the storage system, and record the information on the following worksheet. You must have this 
information to set up and initialize the system.
You manage the storage system through a dedicated LAN port on each storage processor. These ports 
must share a subnet with the host you use to initialize the system. After initialization, any host on the 
same network and with a supported browser can manage the system through the management ports.
In a server with multiple NICs or iSCSI HBAs that are connected directly to the storage system, or that 
are on a dedicated iSCSI network, each initiator port must be on a separate subnet.
Record network information for your system on the worksheet on the next pages. Your network 
administrator should provide most of this information. For more information, refer to your confi guration 
planning guide.
