For information about Brocade edge fabric setup on E_Ports and interswitch linking, see "Administering ISL Trunking" on page 129. For information on EX_Port Frame trunking setup on the FCR switch, see "Using EX_Port frame trunking" on page 234. 8. Capture a SAN profile of the McDATA and Brocade SANs, identifying the number of devices in each SAN. By projecting the total number of devices and switches expected in each fabric when the LSANs are active, you can quickly determine the status of the SAN by issuing the commands nsAllShow and fabricShow on the Brocade fabric. The nsAllShow displays the global name server information and fabricShow displays the fabric membership information. The following examples illustrate the use of these commands. The switch symbolic name. An arrow (>) indicates the principal switch. switch:admin> fabricshow Switch ID Worldwide Name Enet IP Addr FC IP Addr Name 64: fffc40 10:00:00:60:69:00:06:56 192.168.64.59 192.168.65.59 "sw5" 65: fffc41 10:00:00:60:69:00:02:0b 192.168.64.180 192.168.65.180 >"sw180" 66: fffc42 10:00:00:60:69:00:05:91 192.168.64.60 192.168.65.60 "sw60" 67: fffc43 10:00:00:60:69:10:60:1f 192.168.64.187 0.0.0.0 "sw187" The Fabric has 4 switches You can use SAN Pilot or EFCM to gather similar information for the M-EOS fabric. Figure 12 EFCM SAN status When you have configured the 400 MP Router and 4/256 SAN Director or DC Director with an FR4-18i blade to connect to a Brocade fabric, you must create LSAN zones for the SAN. Once you have set up LSAN zoning, you can issue the cfgShow command to verify that the zoning is correct. Configuring M-EOS for interconnection To ensure connectivity with the fabric, you must prepare the M-EOS fabric for use with the 400 MP Router and 4/256 SAN Director or DC Director with an FR4-18i blade. NOTE: The procedures described in this section were current when the document was written, but may have changed since then. Refer to the Zoning User Manual available per the HP switch web page. To prepare the M-EOS fabric: 1. Log in to SAN Pilot or basic EFC Manager depending upon the firmware release. 2. From the SAN Pilot left navigation menu, select Configure. 3. Select the Zoning tab, then select the Zones tab. (select Configure > Zoning on EFCM). The FCR can support up to 2048 zones when connected to an M-Series 9.6 switch.
