You are installing a new VSP G700 and are using the Initial Setup Wizard (ISW) for the network configuration. Which set of IP addresses is configured with the ISW?

Question

Options

• AIP addresses of maintenance ports
• BIP addresses of management ports
• CIP addresses of all the ports
• DIP addresses of all the ports and of the SVP

• A
  5% (2)
• B
  71% (27)
• C
  16% (6)
• D
  8% (3)

Explanation

Option B is correct because the Initial Setup Wizard (ISW) on the Hitachi VSP G700 is specifically designed to configure only the management ports - these are the ports used for administrative access and ongoing management of the storage system, and the ISW streamlines getting them online quickly during initial deployment.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (maintenance ports): Maintenance ports are a separate, specialized interface - the ISW does not configure them.
• C (all ports): The ISW is scoped to management connectivity only; data ports and other interfaces are configured separately after initial setup.
• D (all ports + SVP): The SVP (Service Processor) has its own configuration process independent of the ISW, and again, not all ports are in scope.

Memory tip: Think of the ISW as your "front door key" - it only unlocks management access so you can get in and administer the system. Everything else (data ports, SVP) is configured once you're already inside.
