You can use Storage Manager to create and manage network interfaces.
Creating network interfaces
You can use Storage Manager to create a network interface or LIF to access data from storage virtual machines (SVMs), to manage SVMs and to provide an interface for intercluster connectivity.
Editing network interface settings
You can use Storage Manager to modify the network interface to enable management access for a data LIF.
Deleting network interfaces
You can use Storage Manager to delete a network interface to free the IP address of the interface and then use the IP address for a different purpose.
Migrating a LIF
You can use Storage Manager to migrate a data LIF or a cluster management LIF to a different port on the same node or on a different node within the cluster if the source port is faulty or requires maintenance.
