Chapter 3 Configuring Your Library
Managing the Network
Scalar i500 User’s Guide 61
Details on network settings include:
•
Library Name is the network name you want to assign to the library.
The library name is limited to 12 lowercase alphanumeric characters
and dashes (-).
•
DHCP defaults to enabled. When DHCP is enabled, the library obtains
an IP address automatically. If DHCP is not enabled, you must
manually enter an IP address, default gateway, and subnet mask/net
prefix.
•
IPv4 addresses must be entered in dot notation (for example,
192.168.0.1). They are limited to numeric characters and do not allow
values exceeding 255 for dot-separated values.
•
IPv6 addresses must be entered in the proper notation. IPv6 address
can be entered in the most common notation, as eight groups of four
hexadecimal digits. 2001:0ff8:55cc:033b:1319:8a2e:01de:1374 is an
example of a valid IPv6 address. Also, if one or more of the four-digit
groups contains 0000, you can omit the zeros and replace them with
two colons (::), as long as there is only one double colon used in an
address. Using this notation, 2001:0ff8:0000:0000:0000:0000:01de:1374
is the same as 2001:0ff8::01de:1374.
•
