2. If the network interfaces have already been configured, you will see a Warning message
stating that you should use the CC-SG GUI (administrator’s Director Client) to configure the

screen is shown here:

3. Type your hostname in the Host Name field. After a save, this field will be updated to reflect
the Fully-Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), if known. For hostname rules, please refer to
Terminology/Acronyms in Chapter 1: Introduction.
4. In the Mode field, select either Primary/Backup Mode or Active/Active Mode. Please refer
to
Network Configuration earlier in this chapter for details. Press the TAB key to select the
field, and then press the arrow keys to select between the two modes. To select a mode, press
the SPACEBAR key.
5. Click or TAB to the Configuration Field and select either DHCP or Static from the list.
− If you choose DHCP and your DHCP server has been configured appropriately, the DNS
information, the domain suffix, IP address, default gateway and subnet mask will be
automatically populated once you save, and you exit and re-enter Admin Console.
− If you choose Static, type an IP Address (required), Netmask (required), Default
Gateway (optional), Primary DNS (optional) and Secondary DNS (optional), and
Domain Name in Domain Suffix (optional).
− Even if DHCP is being used to determine the IP configuration for an interface, a properly
formatted IP address and Netmask must be provided.
6. TAB into or click Adapter Speed and use the ↓↑ keys to select a line speed from the list.
The other values of 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps are on a scrollable list (where only one value is
visible at any given time) and the ↓↑ keys are used to navigate to them and <SPACE> is
used to select an alternate value (if so desired).
7. If you did not select AUTO for Adapter Speed, click Adapter Duplex and use the ↓↑ keys
to select a duplex mode (FULL or HALF) from the list, if applicable. While a duplex mode
can be selected at any time, it only has meaning and takes effect when Adapter Speed is not
AUTO.
8. Repeat these steps for the second network interface if you selected Active/Active Mode.
9. Select Save to save your changes. CC-SG will restart, logging off all CC-SG GUI users and
terminating their sessions. A Warning screen will be presented informing of the impending
network reconfiguration and associated CC-SG GUI user impact. Select <YES> to proceed.
