Ethernet port The Ethernet port is an RJ-45 connector that provides a connection to a workstation through a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet cable (Figure 5). A workstation can be a Windows or a Linux server that is used to configure and manage the switch fabric. An Ethernet connection to the switch is required to manage the switch using the CLI, QuickTools, Simple SAN Connection Manager, or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The Ethernet port has two LEDs: the Link Status LED (green) and the Activity LED (green). The Link Status LED illuminates continuously when an Ethernet connection has been established. The Activity LED illuminates when data is being transmitted or received over the Ethernet connection. 12 3 1 Activity LED 3 RJ-45 Ethernet port 2 Link status LED Figure 5 Ethernet port Serial port The 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch is equipped with an RS-232 serial port for maintenance purposes (Figure 6).
