Configure Cluster IP Addresses and the Default Gateway

Configure the client subnet mask, optional VLAN ID, controller IP addresses, a client VIP, and default route for the first appliance. IP addresses and VIPs for additional appliances can be configured at this time or configured later by Dell Storage Manager.

Prerequisites

IP addresses must be reserved for the FluidFS cluster on the client network. See IP Addresses and Network Infrastructure .

Steps

  1. Use the following command to add a client subnet. Specify the client subnet mask, optional VLAN ID, and an IP address for each controller on this subnet. 
    CLI> environment network subnets add <Prefix_Length> [-VLANTag <VLAN ID>]  ‑PrivateIPs <IP1, IP2>
    Example: 
    environment network subnets add 16 -VLANTag 0 -PrivateIPs 198.51.100.16,198.51.100.1
  2. For IPv4, use the following command to configure the default gateway: 
    CLI> environment network default-gateway add-IPv4 [gateway_IP_address]
    For IPv6, use the following command to configure the default gateway: 
    CLI> environment network default-gateway add-IPv6 [gateway_IP_address]
  3. Add at least one client VIP in the same subnet as defined in Step 1 : CLI> client-access DNS-and-VIPs public-ips add <IP>
