the administrator configures the default basic network settings that were
needed to enable logins through the Web Manager. (See “Performing Basic
Network Configuration” on page 84, if desired, for more information about
the initial network configuration.) You can skip this step if the current settings
are correct. Check with your network administrator if you are not sure.
Before making any changes to existing network settings, you may want to
review “Performing Basic Network Configuration” on page 84, which
provides a form to record information you need to collect ahead of time.
In Expert mode, under Configuration>Network, you can specify additional
networking-related information: a Console Banner, a secondary IP address
and secondary network mask, and an MTU. See “To Configure Host Settings
[Expert]” on page 228. In addition, you can configure syslog servers for ports;
specify rules for filtering syslog messages, VPN (Virtual Private Network),
SNMP parameters; specify IP filtering rules (for the KVM/net to act as a
firewall), and perform other advanced configuration tasks.
T To Change Network Settings [Wizard]
1. Collect any IP addresses or other network information to change.
See the list of network information to collect under “Performing Basic
Network Configuration” on page 84, if needed.
2. In Wizard mode, go to “Step 2: Network Settings.”
If the “DHCP” check box is not checked, the DHCP selection page
displays as shown below. If the “DHCP” check box is checked, only the
check box appears below the instructions.
Note: If DHCP is enabled, a local DHCP server assigns the KVM/net a dynamic IP
address, which can change. The administrator chooses whether or not to use
DHCP during initial setup. The initial setting may have been changed since
initial configuration.
