You can change the storage node network settings to give the node a new set of network attributes.
You can see the network settings for a storage node on the Network Settings page when you log in to the node (https://<node IP>:442/hcc/node/network-settings). You can select either Bond1G (management) or Bond10G (storage) settings. The following list describes the settings that you can modify when a storage node is in Available, Pending, or Active state:
- Method
- The method used to configure the interface. Possible methods:
- loopback: Used to define the IPv4 loopback interface.
- manual: Used to define interfaces for which no configuration is done by default.
- dhcp: Used to obtain an IP address via DHCP.
- static: Used to define Ethernet interfaces with statically allocated IPv4 addresses.
- Link Speed
- The speed negotiated by the virtual NIC.
- IPv4 Address
- The IPv4 address for the eth0 network.
- IPv4 Subnet Mask
- Address subdivisions of the IPv4 network.
- IPv4 Gateway Address
- Router network address to send packets out of the local network.
- IPv6 Address
- The IPv6 address for the eth0 network.
- IPv6 Gateway Address
- Router network address to send packets out of the local network.
- MTU
- Largest packet size that a network protocol can transmit. Must be greater than or equal to 1500. If you add a second storage NIC, the value should be 9000.
- DNS Servers
- Network interface used for cluster communication.
- Search Domains
- Search for additional MAC addresses available to the system.
- Bond Mode
-
Can be one of the following modes:
- ActivePassive (default)
