Items Required
The following items are required to configure and connect the HP
StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64:
• HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64 powered on, but not yet connected
to a network or fabric.
• Workstation computer with a terminal emulator application (such as
HyperTerminal).
• Serial cable provided with the switch.
• Ethernet cable.
• SFPs and FC cables as required to connect the switch to the fabric.
• Two IP addresses for use as the native IP addresses assigned to the CP
slots with the corresponding native host name, subnet masks, and
gateway addresses. The default native IP addresses and host names are
as follows:
– 10.77.77.75 CP0 (the CP card in slot 5 at the time of configuration)
– 10.77.77.74 CP1 (the CP card in slot 6 at the time of configuration)
• Two IP addresses for use as the logical IP addresses of the switch with
the corresponding subnet masks. These IP addresses correspond to
“switch 0”, which contains any 16-port cards in slots 1-4, and “switch
1”, which contains any 16-port cards in slots 7-10. The default logical IP
addresses are as follows:
– 10.77.77.77 sw0
– 10.77.77.76 sw1
• Two switch names, if the default switch names are not going to be used.
Switch names can be up to 15 characters long, can include alpha,
numeric, and underscore characters, and must begin with an alpha
character. The default switch name for the logical switches are “sw0”
for the switch containing the 16-port cards in slots 1-4, and “sw1” for
the switch containing 16-port cards in slots 7-10.
