Configuring the Switch
Configure Switch Binding
For complete procedures on configuring this optional feature, refer to
SANtegrity Features on page 6-2.
Configure Ports
Use the procedures in this section to configure names, blocked and
unblocked state, 10-100 km extended distance buffering, enable or
disable link incident (LIN) alerts for ports, port type, port speed, port
binding, and WWN binding name.
Port configuration data is stored in NV-RAM on the switch.
Configure data in the following columns of the Configure Ports dialog
box:
• Port #
You cannot edit this field. This column identifies the port number.
The port numbers range from 0 through 23.
• Name
Enter a name for the port. The port names display in the Port
Properties dialog box and elsewhere in the Product Manager to
identify the port.
To identify port numbers for which you want to provide names, place the
cursor over the ports in the Hardware View. As you move over a port, a
label displays that identifies the slot number where the port is installed.
• Blocked (opens systems mode only)
Placing a check mark in the check boxes of this column blocks the
operation of the port.
• LIN Alerts
A link incident (LIN) is a problem detected on a fiber optic link,
such as the loss of light or invalid sequences. When a problem
occurs, a LIN alert is sent to the Link Incident Log in the switch
Product Manager. LIN alerts warn you that there is a link incident
being detected through a port connection.
