Public Loop Storage Devices Connected to Public Servers

Figure 2-4shows Public Loop storage devices connected to FL_Ports. The servers may be able to attach to either F or FL_Ports. If this is the case, use Switch Management to force the FL_Ports to function as F_Ports. If the servers will only attach to F_Ports, the ports will “self discover and function as F_Ports. Refer to “Conﬁgure the Ports” on page 2-18 .
