Installing the Router

2-11

The router recognizes all SCSI devices connected to the three SCSI channels on the
FS1310, and assigns each device a unique LUN address, which will be mapped as part of a
unique FC address. You can configure the router to assign itself a LUN for in-band
management, server-free backup, and other uses.

To make the host FC connection:

1

Connect the Fibre Channel cable to the router and the host computer, hub, or switch.

2

Power up connected servers, hubs, or switches on the network if necessary.

You are now ready to configure the router. To view the default settings, see
