Field Description
Use DHCP
If DHCP is enabled on the network, we recommend that you use it to
dynamically assign the IP address. If it is disabled, you must enter the
static IP configuration in the fields below.
MAC
Address
The hardware address of the controller.
IP Address
The IP address assigned to the system. Alerts will be sent from this IP
address. This is also the IP address that can be used to access the Raid
Manager GUI in a Web browser.
Net Mask
A 32-bit mask that shows how an internet address is divided on the
network. Set this value to the current settings of the network.
Primary
DNS
The IP Address of the DNS Server that the system uses to resolve host
names. At least one IP Address is required if DNS is to be used for name
resolution. You must set this up if a host name is entered in the ‘E-mail
Server Address’ field in the ‘Email Event Configuration’ screen.
Alternate
DNS
Alternate DNS server to use for name resolution if the primary server is
unavailable.
Gateway IP
Address
IP address that enables communication between computer networks that
may (or may not) use different protocols. Set this value to the current
settings of the network. If the Gateway IP Address is not set correctly,
the GUI will encounter problems connecting to a system through a
firewall.
Domain Domain name of the organisation where the system resides.
NOTE: All systems will be configured with DHCP enabled by default.
The IP address should be detected automatically when connecting
to the network.
