Changing Port Data Rate
After completing login to the console of the FC Switch Module, change the port data rate of each
port on the FC Switch Module according to the procedure below. (The setting is always required.)
Setting at shipment from factory
The port data rate is fixed to 4G bps for every port when an FC Switch Module is shipped from the f
actory.
The port data rate of an FC Switch Module must be set to be the same as
that of fibre channel devices connected to the FC Switch Module. If the port
data rates are different, the connected fibre channel devices cannot link up
to the FC Switch Module. For the port data rate of each fibre channel device
to be connected to the FC Switch Module, refer to the User’s Guide of the
fibre channel device.
