Adding a network
When you add a network to the appliance, you might need to make configuration changes to the following resources:
- Networks
Add the network.
If the network is not added to a network set, you must add a connection to the network in the server profiles that you want to connect to that network. Power off the server hardware before adding the connection to a server profile.
- Network Sets
(Optional) If the network you are adding is an Ethernet network , you might want to add it to a network set or create a network set that includes the network.
If you add the network to a network set, server profiles that have connections to the network set automatically have access to the added network. You do not have to edit these server profiles.
- Logical Interconnects and Logical Interconnect Groups
For a server connected to a logical interconnect to access a network, the logical interconnect must have an uplink set that includes a connection to that network:
You might need to update multiple logical interconnects.
You can make configuration changes to the logical interconnect group, and then update each logical interconnect from the group.
If your configuration changes include deleting an uplink set or changing the name of an uplink set, server profile network connectivity can be affected.
- Server Profiles
For a server to connect to the network, the server profile for the server hardware must include a connection to either the network or a network set that includes the network.
If the server profile does not have a connection to a network set that includes this network, you must add connections to the network.
