IMPORTANT: As long as the recommended number of IP addresses is allocated during the network
configuration process, the B6000 Backup System will automatically assign IP addresses for all
nodes in the system when the network is initially configured or additional couplets are added. If
you do not supply the recommended number and subsequently expand your system, you will need
to reconfigure the network and also reconfigure the addresses used for backup and replication
targets.
Reserved IP address range
The HP StoreOnce Backup System uses the 10.154.x.x ip range for its internal network. This means
that this IP address range is not available for the customer's network. It may cause conflict and
unpredictable results if a customer network uses the 10.154.x.x ip range.
Template 1, uses 10 GbE and 1 GbE sub-nets
Template 1 supports users who have a 10GbE network and a 1GbE network and wish to use
separate sub-nets for data and management. The gateway must be in the same sub-net as the
network that is being used to connect to remote sites. This is normally the data path network.
The recommended IP address range is 25 in total: 16 contiguous on the data sub-net; 1 + 8
contiguous on the management sub-net.
NOTE: When using a 10GbE network, you must provide the correct SFPs for your environment.
They are not supplied with the product.

Template 2, uses 1GbE network only
Template 2 supports users who have a 1GbE network only. The same network is used for data
and management.
The recommended IP address range is 17 in total: 1 for management and 16 contiguous for data.
