NetBackup™ Flex Scale Installation and Configuration Guide

Assigning public IP address to a management network interface

Before you start configuring the NetBackup Flex Scale cluster, you must first assign a public IP address to management network adapter on one of the nodes. You can assign the public address to eth1, bonded eth1 and eth2, VLAN on eth1, or VLAN on bonded eth1 and eth2. If you configure the IP address on all or multiple nodes, ensure that you configure it on the same interface on all nodes. You can then connect to that node using the assigned IP address and start the NetBackup Flex Scale cluster configuration.

To assign an IP address to the eth1 management network interface on one of the nodes:

See Assigning a public IP address to network adapter eth1 or to a VLAN on eth1 of a node.

To configure a bond on eth1 and eth2 management network interfaces and assign an IP address to the bonded device:

See Configuring a bond device and assigning an IP address to the bonded device or to a VLAN on the bonded device.
