6.2.1.1 Shared Network
With a shared network topology, the storage server and service processor share the internal
customer network (Figure 6-1).
Figure 6-1. Storage Server and Service Processor on the Customer Network
(Shared Topology)
A shared topology requires:
◆ A static IP address and system name for the storage server.
◆ Two Ethernet connections from a switch or hub to the storage server controller nodes.
◆ A static IP address for the service processor.
◆ One Ethernet connection from a switch or hub to the service processor.
◆ At least one management station on the network segment.
NOTE: To provide redundancy and to permit online software upgrades, both
controller nodes in a single horizontal node pair (for example, nodes 0 and 1,
nodes 2 and 3, and so on) must maintain connections to the internal customer
network.
