CNA-8000 Installation and Configuration

2-9


Network Options Panel

Selecting the ‘Network’ option will display the following configuration options:



The configuration options on this panel will allow you to modify the network interface
used for management of the CNA-8000. After you have entered all of the values that you
need, then press the ‘Submit’ button. The new values will be stored and will take affect
the next time the CNA-8000 gets booted. Note that only the Ethernet interfaces that are
installed on the unit will be displayed. Eth0 and Eth1 are resident on the motherboard and
are always present. Eth2-5 will appear only if the Quad Ethernet card is installed. Eth6-9
will appear only if a second Quad Ethernet card is installed.

The CNA-8000 makes use of a single IP protocol stack. This means that there is a single
Default Gateway. Traffic that is to be sent to a destination that is not immediately on one
of the subnets defined to be on one of the CNA-8000 interfaces may be routed through
the ETH0 interface to the Default Gateway. The Default Gateway value is associated
with the ETH0 address and must be on the same subnet to be used. For network
installations involving more than one physical network, static routes may be added to
direct traffic through other gateways. Creation of these static routes is currently beyond
the scope of this configuration manual. Please contact Visara support personnel for
information on how to create static routes.
