4. Enter the ipAddrSet command to change the IP address of the selected SAN I/O Module. switch:admin> ipaddrset 5. Follow on-screen instructions and supply the correct information, as shown in the following example: switch:admin> ipaddrset Ethernet IP Address [10.77.77.77]:10.32.53.47 Ethernet Subnetmask [255.255.255.0]:255.255.240.0 Fibre Channel IP Addresss [none]: Fibre Channel Subnetmask [none]: Gateway IP Address [0.0.0.0]:10.32.48.1 DHCP [Off]: IP address is being changed...Done. 6. Enter ipAddrShow to verify the IP address was correctly set. switch:admin> ipaddrshow Ethernet IP Address: 10.32.53.47 Ethernet Subnetmask: 255.255.240.0 Fibre Channel IP Addresss: none Fibre Channel Subnetmask: none Gateway IP Address 10.32.48.1 DHCP: Off Refer to the Dell PowerEdge M1000e Enclosure Owner's Manual that comes with your Blade Server Enclosure for information on using the CMC connect command. 5 Connect the cable to the SFP+ transceiver After modifying the IP address of the Brocade M6505 16 Gbps Fibre Channel SAN I/O Module, it is recommended that you cable all external ports to fabric connections before bringing the SAN I/O Module online. Begin by cabling the ports from the top (ports 17 and 18) and working down as needed (ports 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 0). At a minimum, for all licensed variants of the SAN I/O Module, ports 17 and 18 are pre-licensed at the factory as part of Dynamic Ports On Demand (DPOD). NOTE: To avoid damage to the fiber-optic cables, follow these guidelines: • Do not route the cable along a folding cable-management arm. • When you attach the cable to a device on slide rails, leave enough slack in the cable so that it does not bend to a radius of less than 38 mm (1.5 in.) when the device is extended, or becomes pinched when the device is retracted. • Tie wraps are not recommended for optical cables because they are easily overtightened. CAUTION A 50-micron cable should not be bent to a radius less than 2 inches under full tensile load and 1.2 inches with no tensile load.

Connect the cable to the SFP+ transceiver
After modifying the IP address of the Brocade M6505 16 Gbps Fibre Channel SAN I/O Module, it is
recommended that you cable all external ports to fabric connections before bringing the SAN I/O
Module online.
Begin by cabling the ports from the top (ports 17 and 18) and working down as needed (ports 19,
20, 21, 22, 23, and 0). At a minimum, for all licensed variants of the SAN I/O Module, ports 17 and
18 are pre-licensed at the factory as part of Dynamic Ports On Demand (DPOD).
NOTE:
To avoid damage to the fiber-optic cables, follow these guidelines:
Do not route the cable along a folding cable-management arm.
When you attach the cable to a device on slide rails, leave enough slack in the cable so that it
does not bend to a radius of less than 38 mm (1.5 in.) when the device is extended, or
becomes pinched when the device is retracted.
Tie wraps are not recommended for optical cables because they are easily overtightened.
CAUTION
A 50-micron cable should not be bent to a radius less than 2 inches under full tensile load and
1.2 inches with no tensile load.
