l When configuring segmented network interfaces, if the source DXi replication, data, and
management interfaces are on the same subnet, you must add a host route on the source DXi to
make sure the replication interface is correctly selected when replicating data to the target DXi
(see Understanding Interface Routing on page 313).
5. Click Apply.
Note:The new target is not automatically added to existing replication schedules. You must add or edit
scheduled events to schedule replication to the new target (see Scheduler on page 279).
Editing a Replication Target
Edit a replication target to change encryption options or the source IP address.
To edit a replication target:
1. Under TargetDXis, select the target and click Pause to pause replication.
2. Select the target again and click Edit.
The EditTargetHost window displays (see Figure 169 below).
Note:If you are editing a target, you cannot change the TargetHostnameorIP.

3. In the Encryption drop-down box, select the type of encryption to use when sending replication data to
the target system (None, 128-bit, or 256-bit).
Caution:For encryption, select None or 128-bit if you are sending data to a DXi running a system
software version prior to DXi 2.1 Software.
Note:AES encryption options are available only if the Data-in-Flight license is installed (see
License Keys on page 366).
4. In the SourceIPAddress box, enter the IP address that is used to uniquely identify the source DXi to
the target. This may be different than the actual network IP address of the source DXi.
If the target system is at DXi 2.1 Software or higher, the SourceIPAddress field is not required. If the
target system is at DXi 2.0.1.x Software or below, then you must enter the IP address by which the
target system recognizes the source system. The default value is 0.0.0.0.
