- The node is associated with a network interface profile.
If no interface profile corresponding to the hardware platform
exists, a new one is created. if two nodes have the same
hardware type by default they are associated with the same
network interface profile.
The Network Interface profile lists the physical interfaces
detected on the hardware platform and allows you to associate
them with logical interfaces.

’Setup/IP’

Node(s) to Electra VS’
on page 439.
Defining Processing Capacity of the Nodes
If you have a NodeBench result file performed on an identical hardware
platform (exactly the same hardware and exactly the same configuration
of the BIOS parameters), import it on each node.
Otherwise, launch a NodeBench analyze to measure the performances of
the nodes.
Refer to
Chapter 7 ’Tools’
, section
’NodeBench’
on page 466.
Finalizing Network Configuration
The network recommendations are described in the
IP architecture
documentation delivered in the DVD-ROM with the product.
Finalize the network configuration by:
1.
Adding a new redundant switch in the System Private LAN (physical
interface bonding is mandatory, redundant switch is mandatory).
2.
Setting a Master node virtual IP address to the management LAN, and
use the Master node virtual IP address to connect to the Web Interface.
3.
Finalize the network setup configuring the input and output network
following the recommendation in the Network IP document available
in the DVD-ROM.
