2.2 Data Planning
HyperMetro supports both Fibre Channel and IP networks. You must plan storage arrays,
hosts, and IP addresses of switch ports before configuring HyperMetro.
Principles for Planning IP Addresses
l Simple: Use simple IP addresses and avoid using complex address masks.
l Consecutive: Allocate consecutive IP addresses to a network.
l Expandable: Ensure that IP addresses are expandable so that consecutive IP addresses
can be added as the number of devices increases.
l Manageable: Ensure that an IP address change does not affect upper-layer applications
and system services.
l Secure: Divide a network into different network segments (subnets) for easy
management.
