Configuring the Management Network in SafeMode

When the Management Console is in SafeMode, the Management Network screen in the NSv management console provides features to configure the NSv virtual machine interfaces:

• Management Interface – This is the currently selected interface. This defaults to X1. Use this to select any of the NSv virtual machine interfaces.

• IPv4 Address – The current IPv4 address currently assigned to the Management Interface.

• Netmask – The current Netmask assigned to the Management Interface.

• Mac Address – The MAC address of the Management Interface.

• IPv6 Address – The currently assigned IPv6 address of the Management Interface.

• Gateway – The current Default Gateway currently in use by the NSv virtual machine.

• DNS – A list of the current DNS servers currently being used by the NSv virtual machine.

Changes made to interfaces in SafeMode are not persistent between reboots.
