a. For each port to be configured, type a port name of 24 alphanumeric
characters or less in the associated Name field.
Note: When naming ports, you may want to name each port based on the device
attached to the port. For example, if the port is attached to an e-mail server, you might
name the port email1 server port 2. The important point is to relate the name
of the port to the device that is attached to the port.
b. Click a check box in the Blocked column to block or unblock a port
(default is unblocked). A check mark in the box indicates a port is
blocked. Blocking a port prevents the attached devices or HP products in
the fabric from communicating. A blocked port continuously transmits
the offline sequence (OLS).
c. Click the check box in the FAN column to enable or disable the fabric
address notification (FAN) feature (default is enabled). (The FAN column
is available only on the Edge Switch 2/24.) A check mark in the box
indicates FAN is enabled. When the feature is enabled, the port transmits
a FAN frame after loop initialization to verify that Fibre Channel
Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) devices are still logged in. It is recommended
this option be enabled for ports configured for loop operation.
