Your server or laptop configuration determines which COM port is used for Disk Array USB Port.

Verify the appropriate COM port for use with the CLI.
5. In the terminal emulator, connect to controller A.
6. Press Enter to display the CLI prompt (#).
The CLI displays the system version, MC version, and login prompt:
a. At the login prompt, enter the default user manage.
b. Enter the default password !manage.
If the default user or password—or both—have been changed for security reasons, enter the secure login credentials
instead of the defaults shown above.
7. At the prompt, type the following command to set the values you obtained in
controller A and then for controller B:
set network-parameters ip address netmask netmask gateway gateway controller a|b
where:
address is the IP address of the controller
netmask is the subnet mask
gateway is the IP address of the subnet router
a|b specifies the controller whose network parameters you are setting
For example:
# set network-parameters ip 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 controller a
# set network-parameters ip 192.168.0.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 controller b
8. Type the following command to verify the new IP addresses:
show network-parameters
Network parameters, including the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address are displayed for each controller.
9. Use the
