Managing Fibre Channel Ports

For forward error correction (FEC) to be enabled for a connection, the port on the
Brocade switch and the connected adapter port must have FEC enabled. In
Figure 10-10, FEC is enabled on port FC_21-00-00-0E-1E-08-C2-00. FEC is an
optional feature that can be enabled (or disabled) on links operating at 16Gbps. Its
use is mandatory, and thus it is enabled automatically on links operating at
32Gbps.

Using the Fibre Channel Port Test Beacon
Depending on the port you select, the Test Beacon option may be available.
To activate or deactivate the port beacon:
1. In the host system tree, expand a Fibre Channel adapter node to view the
ports.
2. Select a port to display information about the port.
3. In the content pane, click Test Beacon.
4. In the Beacon Test dialog box, click Beacon On (or Beacon Off), and then
click OK.
Configuring Fibre Channel Port Boot Parameters
To configure port boot parameters:
1. In the host system tree, expand a Fibre Channel adapter node to view the
ports.
2. Select a port to display information about the port.
