5.Open the Switch menu and select Network Properties. In the Network Properties window, enter values for the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address. Accept the default boot method. If you know the SNMP configuration settings, enter those as well. Choose the OK button.

6.Set the date and time. Double click on the switch in the topology display. In the faceplate display, open the Switch menu and select Set Date/Time. Enter the date and time in the Switch Date and Time window and choose the OK button. Reset the switch when prompted to implement the new and date and time.

Repeat this process for each switch in the fabric, then connect the switches.

Configure the Ports

Configuring a port involves defining the port mode. For public devices and other switches, a switch automatically sets the port mode as each port discovers the type of device to which it is connected.

A GL_Port will self configure as an FL_Port when connected to a loop of public devices or an F_Port when connected to a single device. A G_Port will self configure as an F_Port when connected to a single public device. Both GL_Ports and G_Ports self configure as E_Ports when connected to another switch. The default port mode is GL_Port. Refer to the SANbox2-64 Switch Management User’s Guide for more information about configuring ports. You can also configure ports using the CLI. Refer to Appendix B Command Line Interface for information about the command line interface.

Cable Devices to the Switch

Connect cables to the SFP transceivers and their corresponding devices, and then energize the devices. Device host bus adapters can have SFP (or SFF) transceivers or GigaBit Interface Converters (GBIC). LC-type duplex fiber optic cable connectors are designed for SFP transceivers, while SC-type connectors are designed for GBICs. Duplex cable connectors are keyed to ensure proper orientation. Choose the fiber optic cable with the connector combination that matches the device host bus adapter.
