FC4-16IP blade configuration

This section describes the initial setup required to deploy an iSCSI gateway solution. Install and

configure the FC4-16IP blade in a Brocade 48000 as described in the Brocade FC4-16IP Hardware

Reference Manual before performing these procedures.

NOTE

Only the Brocade 48000 with an iSCSI-enabled FC4-16IP blade running Fabric OS v6.1.0 or later

supports the iSCSI gateway service.

NOTE

You can also configure an FC4-16IP blade through the Web Tools Graphical User Interface as an

alternative to the command line interface. Refer to the Web Tools Administrator’s Guide for

descriptions of GUI-based configuration procedures.

FC4-16IP port numbering

The FC4-16IP blade has both GbE ports and FC ports. Ports are addressed using slot number and

port number notation, for example, 2/7. FC ports are numbered from 0 through 7; GbE ports are

numbered from ge0 through ge7.

NOTE

The FC4-16IP blade does not support FCIP functionality.
