Introducing the Switch

This chapter provides the following information:

•Overview on page 1-1

•Monitoring and Managing the Switch on page 1-3

Overview

The FC Entry Switch 8B and FC Switch 8B are eight-port Fibre Channel fabric switches that

support link speeds up to 2 Gbps. Both switches include Fabric OS version 3.0.1b or later, and are

compatible with the entire HP installed base of Fibre Channel hubs, bridges, and switches. Each

product can operate in a fabric containing multiple switches or as the only switch in a fabric.

The switch has an air-cooled chassis, and can be set up as a stand-alone unit or mounted in a 1U,

19-inch rack. It includes the following features:

•Eight optical ports, with the following characteristics:

-Two LEDs (light-emitting diodes), one to indicate port status and one to indicate link

speed

-Automatic negotiation to the highest common speed of all devices connected to the

port.

-SFP (small form factor pluggable) interface

-Universal and self-configuring

-Capable of becoming an F_Port (fabric enabled), FL_Port (fabric loop enabled), or

E_Port (expansion port)

•One serial port with an RS-232 connector

•One 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port with an RJ-45 connector and two LEDs, one to indicate

port status and one to indicate link speed

•A switch status LED on the SFP media side and fan side, indicating the overall status of

the switch

•One power supply

•Five fan assemblies

1-2 Installation and Reference Guide

Introducing the Switch

The SFP Media Side

Figure 1-1 shows the SFP media side of the switch, which contains the power connector, IP label,

serial port, switch status LED, fiber optic ports and their corresponding LEDs, and the Ethernet port

and its corresponding LEDs.

Figure 1-1 The SFP Media Side of the FC Entry Switch 8B and FC Switch 8B

The switch ports are color-coded into two groups of four, to indicate which ports can be used in the

same ISL Trunking group.

Note: ISL Trunking is a Fabric OS feature that enables distribution of traffic over the combined

bandwidth of up to four ISLs between two directly adjacent switches, while preserving

in-order delivery. For information about ISL Trunking, refer to the ISL Trunking User’s

Guide.

The Fan Side

Figure 1-2 shows the fan side of the switch, which contains the fans and the switch status LED.

Introducing the Switch 1

Monitoring and Managing the Switch

The switch can be managed in-band using Fibre Channel protocol, or out-of-band by connecting to

the Ethernet port. The management functions allow the administrator to monitor fabric topology,

port status, physical status, and other information to aid in system debugging and performance

analysis.

Note: The switch performs POST (power on self-test diagnostics) by default each time the switch

is powered on or reset, and any errors are recorded in the error log. For more information

about POST, see Interpreting POST Results on page 3-4.

The switch is compatible with the following management interfaces:

•Command line interface through a telnet connection

Only one telnet session can be active at a time. For more information refer to the Fabric

OS Procedures Guide and the Fabric OS Reference Manual.

•Web Tools

For more information refer to the Web Tools User’s Guide.

•Standard SNMP applications

For more information refer to the MIB Reference Manual.

All these management methods can be used either in-band (Fibre Channel) or out-of-band

(Ethernet).

In addition, the switch supports the following software:

•Zoning

For information refer to the Zoning User’s Guide.

•QuickLoop

For information refer to the QuickLoop User’s Guide.

•Fabric Watch

For information refer to the Fabric Watch User’s Guide.

•Advanced Performance Monitoring

For information refer to the Advanced Performance Monitoring User’s Guide.

•Extended Fabrics

For information refer to the Distributed Fabrics User’s Guide.

•Remote Switch

For information refer to the Distributed Fabrics User’s Guide.

•ISL Trunking

For information refer to the ISL Trunking User’s Guide.
