4
Turn on the storage server.
5
Verify that the server is connected to the Ethernet by ensuring that the LED associated with the NIC
connector is illuminated. See Figure 1-1. If the NIC connector’s LED is a steady green color, then the
connection is good. If the NIC connector’s LED is a flashing amber color, then data is successfully
being transferred.
If the LED is not illuminated, ensure that each end of the Ethernet cable is seated properly in the NIC
connector and the Ethernet jack.
The storage server retrieves the required information to set up network parameters (the IP address,
gateway subnet mask, and DNS server address) from a DHCP server on the network.
NOTE: It may take several minutes for the storage server to boot, depending on your configuration and the
amount of storage attached to the system.

NOTE: The NIC connector’s physical orientation may vary depending on your system. See your system’s
User’s Guide for more information.
