20 Preinstallation
ATTENTION
Carefully observe the labels for the network interfaces of the specific
platforms.
HP COTS platform: The network interfaces can be labelled (0,1) or (1,
2).
The lower number is eth0 and the higher number is eth1.
IBM 306M platform: The network interfaces are labelled backwards.
Interfaces (0, 1) are eth1 and eth0 respectively.
IP addresses
During the Linux base installation, the software prompts you to enter
the TLAN and ELAN network interface IP addresses.
Configure the ELAN network interface IP with an unused private
IP address.
The IP standard reserves specific address ranges within Class
A, Class B, and Class C for use by private networks (intranets).
Table 3 "Reserved IP address ranges" (page 20) lists the reserved
ranges of the IP address space.
Table 3
Reserved IP address ranges

B
172.16.0.0 172.31.255.255
C
192.168.0.0 192.168.255.255
Configure the TLAN network interface IP to the same IP address as
the MCG 3100 and corresponding physical eth1 network interface.
