Set Hard Address

A higher number designates lower priority. This is the standard method to set the address. Use this method unless specifically instructed otherwise.

Use Soft Address

Causes the “Use Soft Address Menu” on page 45 to appear. The soft address feature allows the drive to arbitrate the AL_PA number with other fibre devices.
