Change Switch Mode
To select a switch mode, click the [Switch] button in the [Change Switch Mode] field.
The selected mode is stored in the switch module, not in the EM card.
IMPORTANT:
When the switch mode is changed, the switch
configuration information stored in switch module is erased. It is
recommended to make a backup copy of switch configuration
information before changing the switch mode.
NOTE:
[Change Switch Mode] appears only when the switch module
has the mode select feature. If the switch module does not have this
feature or no selectable switch mode exists, [Change Network Switch
mode] will be blank.


The configuration of switch module can be restored automatically from the EM card when
the switch module is installed.
Select "Enable" or "Disable", then click the [Apply] button to enable/disable auto restore
feature.
IMPORTANT
:

When "Switch Configuration Auto Restore" is enabled and the
switch configuration is stored on the EM card, the stored switch
configuration information is applied automatically in the following
cases.
– When switch module is installed in Blade Enclosure
– When EM card is started (or restarted)
– When EM card is switched to another EM card by switchover
feature
 With [N8406-040(F)] 8G FC switch, "Switch Configuration Auto
Restore" feature is applied only when switch module is installed in
Blade Enclosure (except when the same switch is installed or
removed).
 If the current switch mode differs from that stored in the switch
configuration, the EM card will change the switch mode, then apply
the switch configuration.
NOTE:
"Switch Configuration Auto Restore" is available only on the
switch module that supports restoration of switch configuration.
