4.2 Configuring Ethernet settings

The RamSan allows system monitoring and configuration through the

serial port and the Ethernet port. To access the system’s Ethernet port,
the administrator must assign the RamSan an IP address, subnet mask,
and possibly a gateway. The administrator may assign the IP address in

one of three ways: Static IP, DHCP, or No Ethernet. The default factory
setting is DHCP.

For any questions regarding IP assignment values, please consult your
network administrator.
