Networks Page

Use this page to configure the network environment for the hardware servers that are being provisioned.

The Networks component helps specify the set of network configuration properties that govern the functioning of the network adapters for a particular hardware server.

Software versions indicate the specific release of a product, a release modified by a patch, and/or a software bundle released or packaged by the vendor.
