Note:
You cannot configure the network interfaces and encryption simultaneously.
Configure the Network Interfaces
Configure the library's two local area network interfaces for communication to external
applications.
• Network Port 1 — connects browser-based, remote user interface clients to the
interface server on the library.
• Network Port 2 — a second network connection for service use or for library
managed encryption (LME) for OKM communication.
Before deciding on a configuration, review the Behavior of Library Port 1 and Port
2 with LME and consult with your network administrator. Support for IPv6 and local
addressing requirements can vary from site to site.
• Verify Job Activity and Launch the Wizard
• Configure Network Port 1
• Configure Network Port 2
Note:
You cannot configure the network settings and library encryption in the same
instance of the Configuration Wizard. Configure the network settings, allow
the library to restart, and then configure library encryption.
Verify Job Activity and Launch the Wizard
Modifying the network settings will affect host communication. Verify there is no library
activity before changing the network settings.
1. Check the activity log for active jobs, such as tape moves or mounts. Never
change the network configuration during active jobs, if at all possible.
2. If any tape jobs are active, wait for them to complete before continuing. You may
want to take the library offline before configuring to prevent host activity. See Place
the Library Online or Offline.
3. Run the Configuration Wizard. Select Configure Network Settings.
Configure Network Port 1
Port 1 is primarily used for sending UI, SNMP, and email alerts (SMTP) traffic.
1. Enter the desired library name in the Host Name field.
Valid host names contain characters in the ranges [
A-Z
], [
a-z
], and [
0-9
], plus
the hyphen (
-
). A hyphen cannot be the first or last character in the host name.
Spaces and underscores (
_
) are not supported.
