6. Change the flow control setting on the Edit window.
7. Click OK.
8. Repeat these steps for all the NICs you want to change.
On the TCP Status tab window, for bonded NICs, the NIC flow control column shows the flow
control settings for the physical NICs, and the bond0 as blank. Flow control is enabled and working

The TCP/IP tab
Lists the network interfaces on the storage system. On the TCP/IP tab, you can bond interfaces,
disable an interface, configure an IP address, and ping servers from the storage system.
Identifying the network interfaces
A storage system comes with up to six Ethernet interfaces. To configure the first interface when
configuring a new storage system, you must connect an Ethernet cable to one of the storage system’s
serial ports, or attach a keyboard and mouse to a USB port, and configure the interface in the
Configuration Interface, as described in “Using the Configuration Interface” (page 247). These ports
are named and labeled on the back of the storage system. Once the storage system has an IP
address and can be located using the Find feature in the CMC, you can work with all the NICs in
the CMC or through the Configuration Interface.
Table 15 (page 51) lists the methods to identify the NICs.

Pinging an IP address
Because the SAN should be on a private network, you can ping target IP addresses from a storage
system using the CMC. You can ping from any enabled interface listed on the TCP/IP tab. You
can ping any IP address, such as an iSCSI server or a Fibre Channel switch.
To ping an IP address
1. Select a storage system, and open the tree below it.
2. Select Network.
