In some environments, backup data is kept separate from day-to-day office network traffic, as illustrated
in Figure 8 on page 25. There is a separate, dedicated IP network for all hosts that need data to be
backed up.

NOTE:
Our example shows one PC that is connected to the LAN, but not to the Storage Network. This PC will
not be able to run the Installation wizard or connect to the HP D2D Backup System from the web. No
data from this PC can be directly backed up to the HP D2D Backup System.
Directly connected to a backup server on your main network
In this configuration, a specific server on the network is being used as a backup server. The HP D2D
Backup System has a dedicated connection directly to the storage server and not to the business network.
