According to generation-6-Installation guide , there a 1GB management port and 2 10GBs external ports (+ 2 internal port).
how do setup the IPv4 for the management port ?.
I want an IP on the management port with different Vlan and IP adress and subnet than the client access.
Thanks for your help

Hi Phil!
The interfaces "mgmt-1" can be used only to access WebUI and CLI, correct?
All other connections (DNS, NTP, AD, etc) must be througth the external (ext-1 and ext-2) interfaces. Correct?
I did not find any document that refers the mgmt-1 interfaces. :-(
Thank you!
Reply AdamFox is correct.

thanks for your answer
if I understand correctly I will find as external interface mgmt-1, 10gige-1 10gige-2
I can set mgmt-1 for webgui, cli, esrs access and 10gige-x for client access
the ip address for mgmt-1 has to be setup first by serial interface then optionnaly in the webgui (so no default adress at shipping)
then I can configure subnet and pool for agreggation, cifs and nfs access
is this correct ?

Phil Lam> client can can access SMB & NFS via mgmt-1

Phil Lam> I've only seen mgmt-1 available thru CLI & WebUI after cluster has been setup via serial (haven't seen it on serial setup)
then I can configure subnet and pool for agreggation, cifs and nfs access
Phil Lam> yes
Reply KB#524637 "{Isilon} Gen 6: The bge0 (MGMT) interface should be used for SSH only." states as follows:
The 1G MGMT interface on Generation 6 hardware is designed to handle ssh traffic. It does not support TSO (TCP Segmentation Offload). This can cause the interface to flap when exposed to a moderate to heavy workload.
This means mgmt-1 can be used only for CLI.

In WebUI, go to the Cluster Management->Network Configuration-> groupnet0 (any groupnet)->subnet0 (any subnet)-> More->Add Pool. Add an IP range and pick mgmt-1 from each LNN/node to add to pool.
