Port and switch configuration

You must ensure that all the Fibre Channel ports are correctly configured for
operation with Grass Valley equipment. With these settings, you can use any port in
a SCSI or IP fabric without any further configuration.

1. In administrator mode type the following command at the prompt to enter the

configuration mode:

sb5_8port (admin) #> config edit

2. In configuration mode, type the following command at the prompt to view the

configuration of all the ports on the switch.

sb5_8port (admin-config) #> set config ports

3. Modify the settings as needed. The following example shows the required settings.

A list of attributes with formatting and current values for the port

specified at the command line or port #0 will follow.

Each value that is changed will be set for ALL PORTS.

If you wish to terminate this process before reaching the end of the

list press 'q' or 'Q' and the ENTER key to do so.
