Powering Up All Devices

Connecting to the Ethernet Port

You use the Ethernet (10BaseT) port to configure and manage the FS2620R. You use this configuration option when you need to manage the FS2620R from a remote computer that is connected to your LAN. For more information about the configuration and management capabilities, see Accessing the Router Administrator Using the Ethernet Port on page 3-3.

To connect to the Ethernet port:

1Be sure the FS2620R is turned off.

2Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the FS2620R.

3Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a network hub, router, or other network connection.

Powering Up All Devices

After you have made all of the SCSI, Ethernet, and RS-232 connections, you are ready to power up the router and all devices connected to it. For best results, use a two-stage setup procedure. First, connect all SCSI devices and the RS-232 port to ensure proper operation. Second, connect the FC host port and finish installation.

To power up SCSI devices:

1Be sure the router is turned off.

2Attach the power cable to the back of the router.

See Figure 2-3 on page 2-4.

3Plug the power cable into a power source.

4Connect the SCSI devices to the router using the appropriate SCSI cables.

5Power up the connected SCSI storage devices and allow them to come ready.

6 Power up the router and allow it to come ready.

The ST status light stays a steady yellow. See Understanding the LED Status Lights on page 2-8.

!Caution: Do not remove the router’s cover. The router has no user- serviceable parts. Removing the cover will void the warranty.

The router recognizes all SCSI devices connected to the six SCSI channels on the FS2620R, and assigns each device a unique LUN address, which will be mapped as part of a unique FC address. You can configure the router to assign itself a LUN for in-band management, server-free backup, and other uses.
