Management ports An RJ-45 serial port ( 2 in Figure 1 on page 4) and a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet port ( 3 ) are included on the router for management purposes. The serial connector is for initial IP address configuration and for recovery of the router to its factory default settings should Flash memory contents be lost. It is not intended for normal administration or maintenance functions. An RJ-45 serial cable is provided with the router for management through this serial connection. An RJ-45 to DB9 adaptor is also provided with the cable. An Ethernet cable can be used to connect the Ethernet port directly to a management workstation or to an Ethernet network that includes the management workstation. There are two LEDs on the Ethernet management port. One LED indicates link status, and the other indicates the speed (10 Mb/sec or 100 Mb/sec). See "LEDs on the port side of the router" on page 30 for more details on these LEDs. The TCP/IP address for the Ethernet management port can be configured from the serial port or directly from the Ethernet port itself. Fibre Channel ports | The standard router has two physical Fibre Channel ports ( 4 in Figure 1 on page | 4), numbered 0 and 1, that are enabled in this model. The next 14 physical ports | (2-15) can be enabled with an upgrade license. An LED next to the port number indicates the port status. See "LEDs on the port side of the router" on page 30 for more details on these LEDs. The ports support Fibre Channel Routing services with link speeds up to 1-, 2-, or 4-Gbps. The ports are able to auto-negotiate to the maximum link speed. A number of different small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceivers are compatible with these ports. Contact your IBM representative for more information on SFPs for this product. Ethernet ports Two GbE ports ( 5 in Figure 1 on page 4) numbered GE0 and GE1 support the FCIP and Fibre Channel Routing Services features with link speeds up to 50 Mbps | (up to 1 Gbps with upgrade license). Each GbE port can each support one FCIP | tunnel (eight with upgrade license). Each FCIP tunnel is represented and managed as an Fibre Channel E_Port. Fibre Channel Routing Services functionality can be used over the FCIP link. Fabrics connected through FCIP merge if the ports are configured as VE_Ports, and do not merge if they are configured as VEX_Ports. If VE_Ports are used in an Fibre Channel Routing Services backbone fabric configuration, then the backbone fabric merges but the EX_Port attached to edge fabrics do not merge. For more information see the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide. System status and power LEDs Two LEDs ( 6 in Figure 1 on page 4) display an indication of the overall status of the product. The System Status LED (the top LED) provides information on the current status of the router. The System Power LED (the lower LED) indicates whether the product is on, and the status of the power supplies. See "LEDs on the port side of the router" on page 30 for more details on these LEDs. IP address, WWN pull-out tab The pull-out tab ( 7 in Figure 1 on page 4) provides a space to record the router IP address after you change it from the factory default. See "Setting the router IP address" on page 20 for instructions on setting the IP address. The tab also contains the world wide name (WWN) of the router and its serial number. Chapter 1.

Management
ports
An
RJ-45
serial
port
(
±2²
in
Figure
1
on
page
4)
and
a
10/100
BaseT
Ethernet
port
(
±3²
)
are
included
on
the
router
for
management
purposes.
The
serial
connector
is
for
initial
IP
address
configuration
and
for
recovery
of
the
router
to
its
factory
default
settings
should
Flash
memory
contents
be
lost.
It
is
not
intended
for
normal
administration
or
maintenance
functions.
An
RJ-45
serial
cable
is
provided
with
the
router
for
management
through
this
serial
connection.
An
RJ-45
to
DB9
adaptor
is
also
provided
with
the
cable.
An
Ethernet
cable
can
be
used
to
connect
the
Ethernet
port
directly
to
a
management
workstation
or
to
an
Ethernet
network
that
includes
the
management
workstation.
There
are
two
LEDs
on
the
Ethernet
management
port.
One
LED
indicates
link
status,
and
the
other
indicates
the
speed
(10
Mb/sec
or
100
Mb/sec).
See
“LEDs
on
the
port
side
of
the
router”
on
page
30
for
more
details
on
these
LEDs.
The
TCP/IP
address
for
the
Ethernet
management
port
can
be
configured
from
the
serial
port
or
directly
from
the
Ethernet
port
itself.
Fibre
Channel
ports
The
standard
router
has
two
physical
Fibre
Channel
ports
(
±4²
in
Figure
1
on
page
4),
numbered
0
and
1,
that
are
enabled
in
this
model.
The
next
14
physical
ports
(2-15)
can
be
enabled
with
an
upgrade
license.
An
LED
next
to
the
port
number
indicates
the
port
status.
See
“LEDs
on
the
port
side
of
the
router”
on
page
30
for
more
details
on
these
LEDs.
The
ports
support
Fibre
Channel
Routing
services
with
link
speeds
up
to
1-,
2-,
or
4-Gbps.
The
ports
are
able
to
auto-negotiate
to
the
maximum
link
speed.
A
number
of
different
small
form-factor
pluggable
(SFP)
optical
transceivers
are
compatible
with
these
ports.
Contact
your
IBM
representative
for
more
information
on
SFPs
for
this
product.
Ethernet
ports
Two
GbE
ports
(
±5²
in
Figure
1
on
page
4)
numbered
GE0
and
GE1
support
the
FCIP
and
Fibre
Channel
Routing
Services
features
with
link
speeds
up
to
50
Mbps
(up
to
1
Gbps
with
upgrade
license).
Each
GbE
port
can
each
support
one
FCIP
tunnel
(eight
with
upgrade
license).
Each
FCIP
tunnel
is
represented
and
managed
as
an
Fibre
Channel
E_Port.
Fibre
Channel
Routing
Services
functionality
can
be
used
over
the
FCIP
link.
Fabrics
connected
through
FCIP
merge
if
the
ports
are
configured
as
VE_Ports,
and
do
not
merge
if
they
are
configured
as
VEX_Ports.
If
VE_Ports
are
used
in
an
Fibre
Channel
Routing
Services
backbone
fabric
configuration,
then
the
backbone
fabric
merges
but
the
EX_Port
attached
to
edge
fabrics
do
not
merge.

System
status
and
power
LEDs
Two
LEDs
(
±6²
in
Figure
1
on
page
4)
display
an
indication
of
the
overall
status
of
the
product.
The
System
Status
LED
(the
top
LED)
provides
information
on
the
current
status
of
the
router.
The
System
Power
LED
(the
lower
LED)
indicates
whether
the
product
is
on,
and
the
status
of
the
power
supplies.
See
“LEDs
on
the
port
side
of
the

(
±7²
in
Figure
1
on
page
4)
provides
a
space
to
record
the
router
IP
address
after
you
change
it
from
the
factory
default.
See
“Setting
the
