Note:
When you reserve the IP addresses, you must assign the IP addresses to the
hostnames in the DNS server. Ensure that the hostnames that are assigned to the point
products do not have an underscore (_). If the hostnames have an underscore (_), the
configuration fails.
Note:
Ensure that ICMP is enabled in your network environment. The deployment of the
appliance fails if ICMP is disabled.
3. Download the license files for Data Domain Virtual Edition (DDVE), Avamar Virtual Edition
(AVE), and Data Protection Advisor (DP Advisor) from the Dell EMC Software Licensing
Central.
Note:
For DP4400, only during the initial activation, the license keys are automatically
downloaded from the ELMS server if you are connected to a network.
The contact person mentioned on your sales order should have received the LAC letter
through an email during the order fulfillment process. The LAC letter includes the License
Authorization Code (LAC) associated with your order, instructions for downloading software
binaries, and instructions for activating the entitlements online through Dell EMC Software
Licensing Central.
Follow the steps mentioned in the LAC letter to activate the software and download the
license keys. For additional information, see the Standard Activation Process section in the
License Activation Guide
.
Note:
The LAC letter has the link
https://licensing.emc.com/deeplink/<LAC>
which directs you to Dell EMC Software Licensing Central.
<LAC> is a unique
alphanumeric value that is mentioned in your LAC letter.
After the activation is complete, download the license keys that are generated for Data
Domain Virtual Edition (DDVE), Avamar Virtual Edition (AVE), and Data Protection Advisor
(DP Advisor). Use these license keys during the IDPA configuration.
IP address breakdown
About this task
When a range of IP addresses is used during the IDPA configuration, the IP addresses are assigned
in a standard order. Use the following table to determine which IP address is allocated to a
component.
The first column in each table, IP Range Allocation, is the value to add to the first IP address in the
range. The Sample Hostname column is only a suggested naming convention.
