ONTAP tools for VMware vSphere 10

Configure network access

Contributors netapp-jani

If you've not configured the network access, all the discovered IP addresses from the ESXi host are added to the export policy by default. You can configure it to add a few specific IP addresses to the export policy and exclude the rest. However, when you perform a mount operation on the excluded ESXi hosts, the operation fails.

Steps
  1. Log in to the vSphere client.

  2. Select NetApp ONTAP tools in the shortcuts page under the plug-ins section.

  3. In the left pane of ONTAP tools, navigate to Settings > Manage Network Access > Edit.

    To add multiple IP addresses, separate the list with commas, range, Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR), or a combination of all three.

  4. Select Save.
