Adding a New Switch Fabric
If there are no special conditions to be configured for the new switch, simply plug
in the switch and the switch becomes functional as a default fabric configuration.
The default fabric configuration settings are:
No zoning is configured initially.
All SFP ports will be FL_Ports.
The default IP address 10.0.0.1 is assigned to the switch without a gateway
or boot protocol configured (RARP, BOOTP, and DHCP).
If you are adding a new switch to a fabric and do not want to accept the default
fabric configuration, do the following:
1.
If the switch is not new from the factory, reset the switch to the factory
configuration before adding the switch to the fabric by selecting
Restore
Factory Defaults
in the Switch menu.
2.
If you want to manage the switch through the Ethernet port, you must first
configure the IP address using the Network Properties dialog or the
Configuration Wizard.
3.
Configure any special switch settings. To open the Zoning Config dialog,
open the Zoning menu, and select
Edit Zoning Config
.
4.
Configure the port types for the new switch using the Port Properties dialog.
SFP ports can be F_Port or FL_Port.
5.
Connect the devices to the switch.
6.
Configure any necessary zoning using the Edit Zoning dialog. To open the
Edit Zoning dialog, open the Zoning menu, and select
Edit Zoning
.
