Specifying Network Settings

About this task

Network opens Network Settings page.

The iA300 only has one physical port; however, for network configuration purposes, you specify separate IP addresses for data networking and management networking. The iA1000, iA1500, iA2000, iA2500, and iA3000 have two physical ports.

You must have Administrator privileges to specify network configurations. By default, the Integration Appliance uses DHCP to configure network settings. When you choose to use DHCP to configure network settings, the WMC displays the settings in the Network Configuration page. You can edit these settings by clearing the Use DHCP option or selecting the Manual option.

Note: Using DHCP to configure your network settings can result in longer startup times. For faster startup time, select the Manual option and specify a static value.
