Install the 4Gb SAN Switch

CAUTION:

For switch revision levels 0A and 0B only (running Fabric OS versions earlier than 5.2.1b) — DHCP is not supported on these models. Do not install multiple switches at the same time with default addresses, as address conﬂicts will occur. Locate switch revision levels on the switch or shipping carton. See Set the IP address.

For switch revision levels 0C and above only (Fabric OS 5.2.1b or later) — DHCP is supported and enabled by default for switches running Fabric OS 5.2.1b (switch rev 0C) or later. In this case, IP address conﬂicts will not occur during multiple switch installations. Locate switch revision levels on the switch or shipping carton. See Using External DHCP.

The Brocade 4Gb SAN switch is a hot-pluggable device. The enclosure power may be on or off when inserting the switch. Follow these steps to install the 4Gb SAN Switch.
