Configuring IP address settings for SVM

January 10, 2024

ID 88052

For this step, you must specify IP addressing settings for all SVMs. You can use dynamic or static IP addressing.

If you want to use DHCP network settings for all SVMs:

  1. Select Dynamic IP addressing (DHCP).

    By default, the IP address of the DNS server and the IP address of the alternative DNS server received over the DHCP protocol are used for each SVM (the Use list of DNS servers received via DHCP check box is selected). If you specified several virtual networks for the SVM at the previous step, by default the network settings for the SVM are received from the DHCP server of the first virtual network in the list of the specified virtual networks.

  2. If you want to manually specify the IP address of the DNS server and alternative DNS server, clear the Use list of DNS servers received via DHCP check box. This opens a table containing the following information:
    • Hypervisor

      The Hypervisor column is displayed if you are deploying an SVM in a virtual infrastructure running on the Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix Hypervisor, VMware vSphere, KVM, Proxmox VE, Skala-R, HUAWEI FusionSphere, Nutanix Acropolis, ALT Virtualization Server or Astra Linux platform.

    • OpenStack project

      The OpenStack project column is displayed if you are deploying the SVM in a virtual infrastructure managed by the TIONIX Cloud Platform or in a virtual infrastructure managed by the OpenStack platform.

    • SVM name

    Specify the IP addresses of DNS servers in the DNS server and Alternative DNS server table columns.

If you want to specify all network settings of the SVM manually, select:

  1. Select Static IP addressing. This opens a table containing the following information:
    • Hypervisor

      The Hypervisor column is displayed if you are deploying an SVM in a virtual infrastructure running on the Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix Hypervisor, VMware vSphere, KVM, Proxmox VE, Skala-R, HUAWEI FusionSphere, Nutanix Acropolis, ALT Virtualization Server or Astra Linux platform.

    • OpenStack project

      The OpenStack project column is displayed if you are deploying the SVM in a virtual infrastructure managed by the TIONIX Cloud Platform or in a virtual infrastructure managed by the OpenStack platform.

    • SVM name
    • Network name
  2. Specify the following IP addressing settings for each SVM:
    • SVM IP address
    • Subnet mask
    • Gateway
    • DNS server
    • Alternative DNS

    If you specified several virtual networks for the SVM at the previous step, specify the settings for each virtual network.

Proceed to the next step of the wizard.
