The storage network provides a dedicated backbone for access to the Netapp Filers, and acts as a trusted network for NIC internal services.
Layout
Addressing
The storage network uses a class-B private subnet of 172.17.0.0/16, or 172.17.0.0 to 172.17.255.255. Currently, only the 0, 1, 8, and 223 class-C ranges are in use.
| Settings | |
|---|---|
| IP Address | See Below |
| Netmask | 255.255.0.0 |
| Default Gateway | 172.17.0.0 |
| Domain Name | nic.local |
| DNS Servers | 172.17.202.25 172.17.8.66 |
Address Allocation Schemes
Hosts are assigned addresses in several ranges depending on configuration.
Multi-homed
The general idea is that any host that has a public IP address is assigned a similar address on the storage network. Simply replace the first two octets with 172.17. For example
128.223.202.25 becomes 127.17.202.25 128.223.8.66 becomes 172..17.8.66
Private-only
Permanent systems without a public interface are assigned an address in the 172.17.0.[0-255] range.
DHCP
For temporary access, there is a DHCP server hanging out addresses in the 172.17.1.[0-255] range.
