Galaxy Web GUI User Reference Manual

1-10 Conceptual Foundation

1.3 Conceptual Foundation

In order to access the embedded Galaxy Web GUI, you must have a

valid Ethernet connection to your RAID systems’ Ethernet port over a

LAN or WAN. Other concerns are listed below:

 There is no need to install software modules to your

management computer.

 If the arrays are managed by dual-redundant controllers, in the

event of single controller failure, the manager interface can

“failover” to a counterpart controller. That is why it is better to

assign a static IP to a RAID system’s Ethernet port. However,

you may have to unplug the LAN cable from the dead controller

and connect it to the surviving controller.

 You may also connect both RAID controllers’ Ethernet ports to

the network. The Ethernet port on the stand-by controller will

remain idle until its counterpart fails and it takes over the

dominant role.

 The RAID subsystem can be accessed from a remote station

running a web browser.

 The controller firmware has an embedded HTTP server. Once

properly configured, the controller/subsystem’s Ethernet port

behaves like an HTTP server.

CAUTION!

Due to the high risk of network attack in today’s Internet, the Galaxy’s

10/100BaseT management port should always be connected to a

local network with reasonable protection, such as firewall, router, and

ISA VPN between trusted and untrusted networks. It is not

recommended to directly assign an unprotected public IP to a storage

system’s management port.
