CAUTION

Configure each port to match the topology of each host or

target before connecting to the device. The default port configuration is
fabric, not private loop. The switch does not auto-sense topology.

7. Add the SFPs (small form factor pluggable media) and cables to the ports

as required by completing the following steps:

Note

The ports and FC cables used in trunking groups must meet

specific requirements. For a list of these requirements, refer to the ISL
Trunking User’s Guide
.

a. Remove the shipping plug from the ports to be used.

b. Position the SFP so that the key (the tab near the cable-end of the SFP)

is on top, and insert the SFP into the port until it is firmly seated and
the latching mechanism clicks. For more specific instructions, refer to
the SFP manufacturer’s documentation.

Note

The SFP is keyed so that it can only be inserted with the correct

orientation into the port. If the SFP does not slide in easily, ensure it is
correctly oriented.
