## How to Identify the Network Interface

The vSphere4.0 service console and management interface require a network interface. The service console does not automatically use the first interface with a live connection. Instead, it allows you to select one during the installation. It defaults to `vmnic0`.

Perform the following tasks before beginning the ESX4 installation.

1. Identify the network connector that you will use for the vSphere4.0 service console and management interface.
2. Ensure that the network connector you select is connected to the correct network.

   Refer to your service manual for information about the network connectors on your server.
