Configuring FC ports

With the FC Port Configuration wizard, you can configure allowed port types, port speed, and long
distance mode for physical ports.

You must use Web Tools with the EGM license enabled on the switch to configure long distance;
otherwise, access to this feature is denied and an error message displays.

The EGM license is required only for 8 Gbps platforms, such as the following:

Brocade DCX and DCX-4S enterprise-class platforms

Encryption Switch

300, 5300, and 5100 switches

For non-8 Gbps platforms, all functionality is available without EGM license.

The following procedure describes how to open the FC Port Configuration wizard. The wizard is
self-explanatory, so the explicit steps are not documented here.
