Fibre Channel Configuration Menu options:

Caution:

If these configuration settings are incorrectly set, processing

difficulties may occur. Before changing these settings, evaluate the need for

the change and verify the desired setting. HP recommends backing up the

router configuration to an external file before making changes to these

settings.

1) Change World Wide Name High (service mode-restricted access)
changes the World Wide Port Name High.

2) Change World Wide Name Low (service mode-restricted access)
changes the World Wide Port Name Low.

3) Toggle Hard AL_PA Usage changes the Hard AL_PA usage to either Yes
or No.

— If set to Yes, a unique one-byte valid value (derived from an Arbitrated

Loop Topology as defined in ANSI specification FC_AL version 4.5) is
used for the Fibre Channel configuration.

— When configuring the Fibre Channel AL_PA, the router presents a list of

loop addresses along with the corresponding AL_PA. The user can select
a loop address.

4) Change AL_PA Value changes the AL_PA value. The AL_PA lookup
table is displayed. Enter a node number from the table.

5) Toggle Discovery Mode (default: Manual Discovery Only) determines
how the router will discover new Fibre Channel devices.

Options include:

Auto Discovery on Reboot Events allows the router to automatically

discover all Fibre Channel devices during reboots, including both the
ports and the devices.

Auto Discovery on Link-up Events allows the router to automatically

discover all Fibre Channel devices during reboots, including both the
ports and the devices for the first link-up event. Subsequent link-up
events will only discover the ports and not attached devices.
