Installing and Configuring the SAN Director 2/128 Initial Configuration Parameters The SAN Director 2/128 must be configured before it is connected to the fabric. Configuration commands must be entered through the active CP card. The SAN Director 2/128 configuration includes the following parameters: ■ IP addresses (or "native" IP address), host names, subnet masks, and gateway addresses for both CP cards ■ IP address and subnet mask for the SAN Director 2/128 ■ Director name ■ Switch status policies ■ Domain ID for the SAN Director 2/128 (optional) ■ WWN for the SAN Director 2/128 Note: The SAN Director 2/128 WWN is initially set by the factory to match the license ID (which is based on the chassis serial number). The WWN can be changed, but the license ID cannot be modified. The configuration information is automatically mirrored to the standby CP card-allowing the most current configuration to remain available even if the active CP card fails. The configuration information for the switch is stored in the WWN card and the flash memory of the CP cards. The configuration can be backed up to a workstation (uploaded) and then downloaded to the active CP card if necessary. The basic steps required for the initial configuration are: 1. Log in to the switch (see "Establishing a Serial Connection" on page 61). 2. Set up IP addresses (see "Configure IP Addresses for CP Cards" on page 69 and "Configure IP Address for the Switch" on page 71). 3. Establish an Ethernet connection (optional). See "Establish an Ethernet Connection" on page 72. 4. Specify switch name (see "Customize a Switch Name" on page 73). 5. Set up switch status policies (see "Specify Status Policies" on page 74). 6. Specify domain ID for the switch (see "Set the Domain ID" on page 75). 66 SAN Director 2/128 Installation Guide
