Default Smart Settings
The default Smart Settings cannot be modified or deleted, but these settings can be
used as templates for creating custom port types.
Note:
Changing the port type may affect the performance or behavior of the system.
Depending on the implementation, some port types are better than others. For
questions regarding port type or cascade configuration, contact a customer
service representative.
Initiator or Target
This Smart Setting is the default setting for all switch ports from the factory. This setting
offers no change protection and all settings are set to their default values. Initiators and
targets can be connected to ports that are set to this Smart Setting.
This is the recommended Smart Setting for setups with targets and initiators connected
to a single switch.
Initiator with Stealth
This Smart Setting is used when connecting a host device to the port. When a port is set
to this Smart Setting, change notifications are not sent from the initiator to other devices,
but change notifications are received by the initiator.
This Smart Setting is appropriate for embedded storage controllers and external Host
Bus Adaptors (HBAs) or servers with installed HBAs.
Target with Stealth
This Smart Setting is used when connecting embedded storage devices, like JBOD
enclosures, SBOD™ enclosures, tape drives, or external RAID systems (JBOD
enclosures, SBOD enclosures, or tape libraries). When a port is set to this Smart
Setting, change notifications are sent to other devices, but change notifications are not
received by the target.
Fabric Connection
This Smart Setting is used when connecting a port to a Fabric switch. Only one
connection from the L10 storage switch to a Fabric switch is valid.
Tree Cascade
This Smart Setting is used when connecting two or more switches together in a tree
configuration. Up to four tree cascades are supported between switches.
String Cascade
This Smart Setting is used when connecting two switches together in a string
configuration. Up to four string cascades are supported between two switches.
