System Administration
To perform system administration, the Storage Center communicates with computers using the Ethernet
management (MGMT) port.
The Ethernet management port is used for Storage Center configuration, administration, and
management.
NOTE: The baseboard management controller (BMC) does not have a separate physical port on the
SCv2000/SCv2020. The BMC is accessed through the same Ethernet management port that is used
for
Storage Center configuration, administration, and management.
