Access Gateway mapping
2
Use the following steps to map one or more devices to an N_Port group or remove device mapping
from an N_Port group.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
2. To add one or multiple device WWNs to an N_Port group, enter the ag --addwwnpgmapping
Port_Group command with the [WWN];[WWN] option.
All the listed device WWNs will use the least-loaded N_Port in the port group when they log in,
unless a specific device mapping can be used instead. This command can only map devices
currently connecting through NPIV.
The following example adds two devices to port group 3.
ag --addwwnpgmapping 3 “10:00:00:06:2b:0f:71:0c;10:00:00:05:1e:5e:2c:11”
3. To change all currently existing device mappings to a different port group, use the --all option
instead of listing all the WWNs.
The following example changes all the currently mapped devices to use port group 3 instead of
the current port group mappings.
ag --addwwnpgmapping 3 --all
4. To remove one or multiple devices to an N_Port group, enter the ag --delwwnpgmapping
Port_Group command with the [WWN];[WWN] option.
All the listed devices will stop using the least-loaded N_Port in the group when they log in.
The following example removes mapping for two devices from port group 3.
ag --delwwnpgmapping 3 “10:00:00:06:2b:0f:71:0c;10:00:00:05:1e:5e:2c:11”
5. To remove all devices mapped to an N_Port group, enter the command with the --all option
instead of listing all WWNs. All of the devices will cease automatic use of the least-loaded port
in the port group when they log in. The --all option is a shortcut for specifying all of the devices
that are already mapped with the addwwnpgmapping command.
The following example removes all devices mapped to port group 3.
ag --delwwnpgmapping 3 --all
6. Enter the ag
--
wwnmapshow command to display the list of WWNs mapped to port groups
and verify that the correct devices have been mapped to the desired port group.
Device mapping to N_Ports
Use the following steps to add one or more devices to an N_Port to route all device traffic to and
from the device through the specified N_Port. Also use these steps to remove device mapping to an
N_Port.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
2. To add one or multiple devices to an N_Port, enter the ag --addwwnmapping N_Port command
with the [WWN];[WWN] option. All the listed device WWNs will use the N_Port if it is available.
The following example adds two devices to N_Port 17.
ag --addwwnmapping 17 “10:00:00:06:2b:0f:71:0c;10:00:00:05:1e:5e:2c:11”
The --all option edits all the currently existing mappings. None of the --all options have any way
to detect what devices are using the switch. This option edits the mappings that are in the list.
