Setting the Speed of the Ethernet Ports

Viewing the Network Settings

To view network settings including port speed and duplex mode, follow these steps:

1	Right click on the RAID controller module.
2	Select Properties.
3	Select the Network tab.

Changing Network Settings

To change network settings, go to the Change Network Configuration dialog:

1	Right click on the RAID controller module.
2	Select Change>>Network Configuration.

Selecting the Ethernet Port

Use the Ethernet Port drop-down list to select a different RAID controller module and port. All RAID controller module and port combinations are on the list. Click OK after making a selection.

Changing Port Speed and Mode

Use the Speed and Duplex Mode drop-down list to select a different mode. Click OK after making a selection.

The specific GbE RAID controller module on the RAID controller module board determines the speed and duplex combinations that you can set manually. Only the combinations supported will be displayed.

Speed	Duplex
1000BASE-T	Duplex
1000BASE-T	Half duplex
100BASE-T	Duplex
100BASE-T	Half duplex
10BASE-T	Duplex
10BASE-T	Half duplex
Auto-negotiate

Auto-negotiation is link speed negotiation performed on each host channel fibre channel port .Auto negotiation is enabled as the default for GbE management ports. If auto-negotiation fails, a Needs-Attention status appears and the system tries to establish a connection at 10BASE-T, half duplex.

IPv4 and IPv6 Settings

If you select a RAID controller module that has internet protocol versions 6 (IPv6) you will be able to select either internet protocol version 4 (IPv4) or IPv6. If the RAID controller module only has IPv4, IPv6 will not be shown in the dialog. When both IPv4 and IPv6 are shown, ensure that you select the applicable version:

Select IPv4 and select the IPv4 tab.
Select IPv6 and select the IPv6 tab.

1	Select the applicable RAID controller module and port combination from the pull-down menu.
2	Select the applicable speed and duplex mode from the pull-down menu.

With either IPv4 or IPv6, you can select the method of configuration

Obtain configuration automatically
Specify configuration

If you specify obtain configurations automatically, configurations will be obtained:

From DHCP server for IPv4
Using Stateless Address Auto-configuration

Click OK to complete the configuration.

If you select specify configuration for IPv4, complete these step:

1	Type an IP address in the IP address field.
2	Type a subnet mask in the subnet mask field.
3	If you want to change the RAID controller module gateway, click on Change RAID Controller Module Gateway. A dialog opens. When all changes are completed, click OK.

If you select specify configuration for IPv6, complete these step:

1	Type the last half of the IP address in the IP address field. The first half is always: FE80:0000:0000:0000 and is already displayed.
2	Type the routable IP address in the Routable IP address field.
3	If you want to change the RAID controller module router IP, click on Change RAID Controller Module Router IP. A dialog opens. When all changes are completed, click OK.
