Changing Port Topology
After completing login to the console of the FC Switch Module, change the topology of external
ports on the FC Switch Module according to the procedure below. (The port topology must always
be set.)
Setting at shipment from factory
The port topology (Locked G_Port) is set as follows when an FC Switch Module is shipped from the
factory.
External ports:
ON (Valid: only fabric devices connectable)
Internal ports:
·· (Invalid: Select Auto as the topology.)
The port topology of an FC Switch Module must be set to be the same as
the port topology of fibre channel devices connected to the FC Switch
Module. If the port topologies are different, the connected fibre channel
devices cannot link up to the FC Switch Module. For the port topology of
each fibre channel device to be connected to an FC Switch Module, refer to
the User’s Guide of the fibre channel device.
