3 Installation and uninstallation

If you selected Select address ranges for IO Virtualization, the fol-
lowing window opens:

In this window, specify which address range the Virtual-IO Manager
should use for virtual MAC addresses. The virtual MAC addresses are
assigned automatically in a profile for the LAN ports during the server pro-
file definition.

Eight predefined MAC address ranges are available for selection, which
do not overlap (MAC Address Range 1 to MAC Address Range 8).
Each of these address ranges contains 8000 MAC addresses. If such a
range is insufficient, you can also select a range double the size using
MAC Address Range 1 and 2 to MAC Address Range 7 and 8.
Each of these areas contains 16000 MAC addresses.

If you have an address range of your own that you wish to use for virtual
MAC addresses, then select it in the Custom MAC Address Range
drop-down menu. In this case, the fields in Custom MAC Address
Range Parameters
, in which you can enter the start and end MAC
address of the address range, become active.
