This feature is available in the SuperCluster Virtual Assistant version 2.2.0.862 (or later). To check your version, see Check the SuperCluster Virtual Assistant Version. This feature is supported on SuperCluster M8 and SuperCluster M7.
When a domain is created, the assistant automatically assigns IP addresses to the management, 10GbE client, IB, and Versaboot (if applicable) networks. You can configure the assistant to allow the person creating the domain to select specific IP addresses from a specific subnet for the management and client networks:
-
Automatic – (Default) The assistant automatically assigns IP addresses to all domain networks. The IP addresses assigned are the next available addresses from the IP addresses pool. See Set Up Networks and Add or Edit a Network (Administrators).
-
Manual for administrators – During domain creation, administrators choose specific IP addresses. For non-administrators, the IP addresses are automatically assigned.
-
Manual for all users – During domain creation, all users choose specific IP addresses.
