Network interfaces

You can use Storage Manager to create and manage network interfaces.

  • Creating network interfaces
    You can use Storage Manager to create a network interface or LIF to access data from storage virtual machines (SVMs), to manage SVMs and to provide an interface for intercluster connectivity.
  • Editing network interface settings
    You can use Storage Manager to modify the network interface to enable management access for a data LIF.
  • Deleting network interfaces
    You can use Storage Manager to delete a network interface to free the IP address of the interface and then use the IP address for a different purpose.
  • Migrating a LIF
    You can use Storage Manager to migrate a data LIF or a cluster management LIF to a different port on the same node or on a different node within the cluster if the source port is faulty or requires maintenance.
