Installing the Router Connecting the Router The router has several types of data connections: ! Fibre Channel (gigabaud interface connector [GBIC])—permitting connection to other FC devices, typically through an arbitrated loop or SAN with fabric. ! Three SCSI channels—permitting the connection of up to 15 devices on each channel. ! RS-232 serial port—for configuration and management of the router.
FS1310 Rack/Desktop Model User’s Guide You must use the proper SCSI cables on the model you purchased. For example, if you purchased the LVD model, you must use LVD-qualified SCSI cables. Symbols on the rear panel tell you which model you have. SCSI LVD/SE SCSI DIFF LVD/SE (wide, Ultra-2 SCSI), 68-pin SCSI (LVD/SE model) Ultra wide, 68-pin SCSI (HVD model) To connect devices to the SCSI channels: 1 The router must be turned off. 2 Turn off the SCSI devices you want to connect.
Installing the Router To connect to the Fibre Channel port: 1 Be sure the router is turned off. 2 Insert the GBIC into the Fibre Channel port. See Figure 2-9 on page 2-7. The GBIC is keyed and can only go in one way. Be sure that the GBIC locks into place. 3 Connect one end of the Fibre Channel cable to the GBIC. 4 Connect the other end of the Fibre Channel cable to a server’s HBA or to an arbitrated loop hub or fabric switch.
FS1310 Rack/Desktop Model User’s Guide 3 Move the E-S switch to the S position. 4 Connect the other end of the RS-232 cable (DB-9) to the COM port on the computer that will monitor and configure the router. Connecting to the Ethernet Port You use the Ethernet (10BaseT) port to configure and manage the router. You use this configuration option when you need to manage the router from a remote computer that is connected to your LAN.
Installing the Router The router recognizes all SCSI devices connected to the three SCSI channels on the FS1310, and assigns each device a unique LUN address, which will be mapped as part of a unique FC address. You can configure the router to assign itself a LUN for in-band management, server-free backup, and other uses. To make the host FC connection: 1 Connect the Fibre Channel cable to the router and the host computer, hub, or switch.

Pressing Ctrl-E toggles you through the event log, debug log, hardware information, and configuration information screens.
A Address and Device Mapping Devices attached to the router are discovered during power on. The router defaults to AUTO mapping mode, which automatically maps the SCSI devices at each power on. The router maps devices sequentially as it scans the channels and discovers the devices (devices are discovered by channel, lowest SCSI ID and LUN first). Devices are mapped to FC LUNs, starting from LUN 0 to LUN 63 (64 LUNs are supported, including an optional router LUN).

Address and Device Mapping Loop ID to AL_PA Mapping During the Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) initialization process, a unique Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA) value is assigned to each port on the loop. Not all of the 256 hex values are allowed as AL_PA values per FC-AL, so Loop IDs are used to represent the 125 addresses that the router can use. You can assign a Loop ID to the router. See Changing the Router’s Loop ID on page 3-8. Table A-2 shows how a Loop ID value maps to an AL_PA.
FS1310 Rack/Desktop Model User’s Guide Table A-2.
B LAN Configuration Before you can access the Router Administrator software using the Ethernet port, you must set up your router for TCP/IP. The following sections describe the router’s TCP/IP setup. A router that is part of a TCP/IP network requires three basic IP configuration elements: IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway IP address. The router’s IP address must be unique to the network in which the router resides.
FS1310 Rack/Desktop Model User’s Guide Using Address Resolution Protocol The ARP configuration method requires no IP address re-configuration of any computer on the network. The ARP command is available in various forms and sometimes with varying syntax in UNIX and Windows systems. All routers are shipped with a unique Media Access Control (MAC) hardware address (sometimes referred to as a physical address).
LAN Configuration Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Configuration The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol designed to make IP address assignment dynamic and automatic. When a router is configured in DHCP mode, it generates a request for an IP address. The address is provided to the router and can be used from that point forward. In the dynamic address assignment mode, an IP address is leased to a DHCP-configured router.
