Example B: Fabric topology
1.
Connect each host adapter directly to the
switch.
2.
Connect each switch directly to the host
ports on the controllers.
3.4.2. Connect and configure the management connection
You can configure the controller management ports using one of two options: using a DHCP server
or using a static IP address.
Option 1: DHCP server
Follow this procedure to configure the management ports with a DHCP server.
Before you begin
•
Your DHCP server is configured to associate an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address
as a permanent lease for each controller.
•
You have obtained the assigned IP addresses you will use to connect to the storage system
from your network administrator.
Steps
1.
Connect an Ethernet cable to each controller’s management port, and connect the other end to
your network.
Ethernet cables (if ordered)
The following figures show examples of the controller’s management port location:
