Discovering the switch

1. Locate the WWN for your switch on the switch ID pull-out tab located on the bottom of the port

side of the switch.

2. From the Switch WWN list (

Figure 7

), choose the switch’s WWN prefix numbers and then enter

the last six alphanumeric digits of your switch’s WWN. Each two alphanumeric digits must be
separated by a colon.

3. Click Next.

When EZSwitchSetup discovers the switch, it displays the discovered IP addresses (IPv4 and
IPv6) on the screen (

Figure 8

).

If you are setting up the switch for the first time, the IP addresses are placeholder addresses
that were assigned at the factory and you must provide valid addresses.
