Network setup
To establish external Ethernet network connectivity for the HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure:
1. Identify the MAC addresses to be used on the server blades deployed within this Virtual Connect
domain.
2. Set up connections from the HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure to the external Ethernet networks.
These connections can be uplinks dedicated to a specific Ethernet network or shared uplinks that carry
multiple Ethernet networks with the use of VLAN tags.
Configuring MAC address ranges
To configure MAC address ranges, use the set domain command.
To use VC-defined MAC addresses:
>set domain MacType=VC-Defined MacPool=10
To use factory-default MAC addresses:
>set domain MacType=Factory-Default
To set user-defined MAC addresses:
>set domain MacType=User-Defined MacStart=00-17-A4-77-00-00
MacEnd=00-17-A4-77-00-FF
IMPORTANT: Configuring Virtual Connect to assign server blade MAC addresses requires
careful planning to ensure that the configured range of MAC addresses is used once within the
environment. Duplicate MAC addresses on an Ethernet network can result in a server network
outage.
Each server blade Ethernet NIC ships with a factory default MAC address. The MAC address is a 48-bit
number that uniquely identifies the Ethernet interface to other devices on the network. While the hardware
ships with default MAC addresses, Virtual Connect can assign MAC addresses that override the factory
