Configuration: NDMP

Setting up NDMP

The ATTO iPBridge should first be configured for
the network using the RS-232 port to establish the
correct IP address, subnet mask, gateway and
iPBridge names. Authentication can require the
use of a client name-password pair, along with
configuration of the security level (MD5, Text, or
None) used for authentication. The iPBridge 2500
does not validate the client-name, and a single
password is used for all password fields within the
iPBridge 2500.
The NDMP port number is user-configurable,
with the industry standard (10000) as the default.
NDMP device mapping links a SCSI btl (bus,
target, LUN) to an ASCII device name. If you do
not use the default mapping, you must map
devices before using NDMP.
