Active System Manager Release 8.2 User’s Guide

Networks

ASM manages LAN (private, public, and hypervisor management), hypervisor migration, hypervisor cluster private, OS Installation, File Share, and SAN (iSCSI/FCoE) networks.

To facilitate network communication, you can add ranges of static IP addresses that ASM assigns to resources for iSCSI initiators. You can also create virtual identity pools of MAC, IQN, WWPN, and WWNN virtual identities that ASM assigns to virtual NICs.

NOTE: When the OS installation network is set to Static, OS installation is supported only for installing Linux or ESXi on bare-metal systems with Intel NICs.

Also, make sure that the following network pre-requisites are met:

The virtual appliance is able to communicate with the out-of-band management network.
The virtual appliance is able to communicate with the OS Installation network in which the appliance is deployed.
The virtual appliance is able to communicate with the hypervisor management network.
The DHCP server is fully functional with appropriate PXE settings to PXE boot images from ASM or Razor in your deployment network.
