7.3 Configuration commands

Configure the ATTO FibreCenter 3400 using a T elnet session over the Ethernet port. The commands in this section

configure or provide information about the ATTO FibreCenter 3400.

Flush, Setup

and

Switch

commands are all

closely related.

Flush
Undoes all previous
Setup
commands since the most recent
Flush
or
Switch
command
Actions:
Flush•000
Information:
none
Rate
Sets (fixes) the data rate for each zone in the FibreCenter 3400. The rate will ordinar ily be set through auto negotiation but this command has
the power to fix the rate at either 1Gb or 2Gb, regardless of auto negotiation. When the
get rate
command returns 0, the 0 is a placeholder for a
zone and does not mean autonegotiate.
Limits: [0|1|2] for auto negotiate, 1Gb or 2 Gb in zones 01, 02 or 03.
Actions:
set•RACK•000•Rate•[0|1|2]•[0|1|2]•[0|1|2]
Information:
get•RACK•000•Rate
Example: set•RACK•000•Rate• ••1•2
(sets zone 02 in 1 Gb, zone 03 as 2 Gb)
Return:
RACK•000•Rate •1•0•0
(1Gb in zone 01)
Reset
Performs a “warm boot” including POST and refreshes all configuration settings. All software in Flash me mory is reloaded into RAM.
Actions:
Reset •RACK•000 Information: none
Setup
Prepares the FibreCenter 3400 for the requested configuration and saves all configuration information i nternally without making hardware
changes. Hardware changes require a
Switch
command.
Syntax: setup•000:[LL][C]0
Actions:
Setup•000:01 [2|3|4|5|6|7|8]0
Setup•000:02 [2|3|4]0
Setup•000:03 [6|7|8]0
Information: none
See Exhibit7.3-1 for examples of returns
Switch
Commits all previous
Setup
commands since the most recent
Flush
or
Switch
command. The
Switch
command first turns off all ports within the
configured zone, waits for the amount time designed in
Switch Delay
command (default is 20000 microseconds), then implements the
Setup
command. The
get switch
command returns the ports as alphabetic characters because the hub is acting as an A-B switch.
Actions:
Switch•000
Information:
get•Switch•000
See Exhibit7.3-1 for examples of returns
Switch Delay
Determines the amount of time before the
Switch
command takes effect in microseconds (µsec).
Limits: 0 to 2000000 µsec (0-2 seconds) Default: 20000 µsec
Actions:
set Switch•delay [0-2000000]
