Upgrade and downgrade considerations for the ADS policy Downgrading to Fabric OS v6.3.0 or earlier is supported. Upgrading from v6.3.0 to v6.4.0 or downgrading from v6.4.0 to v6.3.0 will not change the APC policy settings. Automatic Port Configuration policy APC provides the ability to automatically discover port types (host, target, or fabric) and dynamically update the port maps when a change in port-type connection is detected. This policy is intended for a fully hands-off operation of Access Gateway. APC dynamically maps F_Ports across available N_Ports so they are evenly distributed. How the APC policy works When the APC policy is enabled and a port on AG is connected to a Fabric switch, AG configures the port as an N_Port. If a host is connected to a port on AG, then AG configures the port as an F_Port and automatically maps it to an existing N_Port with the least number of F_Ports mapped to it. When the APC policy is enabled, it applies to all ports on the switch. Access Gateway Administrator's Guide 31 53-1001760-01
