Configure the 8Gb SAN Switch
The 8Gb SAN Switch must be configured to ensure correct operation within a network and fabric.
For instructions about configuring the switch to operate in a fabric containing switches from other
vendors, see the HP SAN Design Reference Guide:
http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/san/documentation.html
For more information about the CLI, see the latest version of the Fabric OS command reference.
Items required for configuration
The following items are required for configuring and connecting the 8Gb SAN Switch for use in
a network and fabric:
8Gb SAN Switch installed in the enclosure
IP address and corresponding subnet mask and gateway address recorded during the “Setting
the IP address manually” (page 14) procedure
Ethernet cable
SFP transceivers and compatible optical cables, as required
Access to an FTP server for backing up the switch configuration (optional)
Connect to the Command Line Interface
Make an Ethernet connection and log in to the 8Gb SAN Switch:
1. Connect the workstation to the Ethernet network containing the OA. If the OA is not on a
network, connect directly to the OA/iLO Ethernet port on the active OA.
IMPORTANT: Verify that the switch is not being reconfigured from any other connections
during the remaining steps.
2. Open a Telnet connection using the IP address set earlier. The login prompt displays when
the Telnet connection locates the switch in the network.
3. Enter the user name, using the administrative account admin.
4. Enter the password. The default password is password.
