Note: The Internet Protocol (IPv4, IPv6, or dual IPv4/IPv6) selection is used for the TS2900 Tape Autoloader IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, time server

address, mail server address, SNMP trap address, and EKM server addresses.

To modify the network settings, follow the procedure:

1. In the Conﬁgure Library menu in the left navigation pane of the Web User Interface, click Network.

2. In Ethernet, select the link speed duplex mode (Auto, 10Base-T Full, 10Base-T Half, 100Base-TX Full, 100Base-TX Half).

3. In Security, select Enable SSL for Web to provide secure communications between the web browser and the tape library.

4. Select the TCP/IP settings. IPv4, IPv6, and dual stack IPv4/IPv6 are supported. To enable the dual IPv4/IPv6 protocol, select both Use IPv4 and Use IPv6 and

enter parameters for both.

IPv4 Settings - Select Use IPv4 to enable the IPv4 Internet Protocol. Select the corresponding option to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP) or use

static IP address settings. When with DHCP, use the Operator Panel to determine the library IP address. See Locating management functions. Enter the

following parameters if you are using 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.

IPv6 Settings - Select Use IPv6 to enable the IPv6 Internet Protocol. Select the corresponding checkbox to obtain an IP address with stateless auto

conﬁguration. Select the corresponding option to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP) or to use a static IP address. Enter the following parameters if

you are using static IP address settings:

IPv6 address - Sets the TCP/IPv6 address of the library on the network.

Preﬁx Length - Decimal value 0 - 128 indicating the number of contiguous, high-order bits comprising the network portion of the address.

Gateway - Allows access outside the local network.

5. In DNS settings, 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.

6. Click Submit to enable the settings.

Note: The changes that are made to the network settings take effect after the library is rebooted.

Conﬁguring encryption

Figure 1. Encryption settings screen

Select Conﬁgure Library > Encryption to conﬁgure an encryption method for data that is stored on tape cartridges. The library supports transparent library-managed

encryption by the tape drive itself (IBM® Ultrium 4 (Model 3572-S4H), Ultrium 5 (Model 3572-S5H), Ultrium 6 (Model 3572-S6H), Ultrium 7 (Model 3572-S7H), Ultrium 8

(Model 3572-S8H), and Ultrium 9 (Model 3572-S9H) if you purchased the Encryption Activation Key feature, relieving the host of the burden of managing encryption

applications and systems.

Note: Application Managed Encryption (AME) does not require a key. Library Managed Encryption (LME) and System Managed Encryption (SME) require a license key,

which is available by purchasing Feature Code 5901.
