• Attached WWN: Click the radio button and, if a device is logged into the port, the device's WWN will display in the field. The device with this WWN or nickname will have exclusive communication privileges to the port if WWN Binding is enabled. If you click this radio button to bind the port to a logged-in device and there are no devices logged in, the port is essentially bound to a WWN of "0." This prevents any device from logging in until this button is re-enabled to bind the WWN of a logged-in device or until you explicitly bind the WWN of a device by clicking the WWN radio button and entering a WWN or nickname (see the following). Changes only take effect when you click the Activate button. • WWN: Click the radio button and enter a world wide name (WWN) in the proper format (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) or a nickname configured through the Product or Fabric Manager applications. The device with this WWN or nickname will have exclusive communication privileges through the port if WWN Binding is enabled. Note the following: - If you do not enter valid WWN or nickname in this field, but the WWN Binding check box is checked (enabled), then no devices can communicate over the port. - If you enter a WWN or nickname in this field and do not place a check in the WWN Binding checkbox, the WWN or nickname will be stored, and all devices can communicate over the port. • Activate: Click to activate settings in this dialog box. WWN Binding warning and error message display: • If one or more of the nodes logged into a port does not match the WWN or nickname configured in the field by the WWN radio button, a warning dialog box displays after you activate the configuration. This warning box displays a list of all nodes that will be logged off if you continue. If you Continue, these nodes will be logged off and the port will only attach to the device with the device with the WWN or nickname configured in the WWN field. • An error message displays after you activate the configuration if the format for the WWN entered in the WWN field is not valid (not in xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx format) or if you have entered a nickname that was not configured through the Product or Fabric Manager. 76 Hardware View
