Edge Switch 2/24 installation guide 61
Configure feature key
For complete procedures on configuring this feature, refer to HP StorageWorks Edge Switch Element
Manager user guide.
Configure Open Trunking
This option is only available if the optional Open Trunking feature is installed. Choosing this option
opens the Configure Open Trunking dialog box. For details on enabling Open Trunking and
configuring such parameters as congestion thresholds for ports, event notification options, and low
BB credit threshold, refer to HP StorageWorks Edge Switch Element Manager User Guide.
Enable Embedded Web Server
Use the following steps to enable EWS:
1. At the Hardware View page, select Configure > Enable Web Server. Choosing Enable Web
Server automatically places a check mark in the check box.
2. Select Enable Web Server again to remove the check mark and disable the EWS interface.
When disabled, remote users cannot access the interface.
For detailed information on using EWS, see ”Using the Embedded Web Server” on page 67.
Enable Telnet
Use the following steps to enable Telnet:
1. At the Hardware View, select Configure > Enable Telnet. Choosing Enable Telnet automatically
places a check mark in the check box.
2. Select Enable Telnet again to remove the check mark and disable telnet access. When disabled,
remote users cannot access the Edge Switch through telnet.
Connect cables to Fibre Channel ports
Perform this task to connect devices to the switch. To cable Fibre Channel ports:
1. Route single mode or multimode fiber optic cables (depending on the type of SFP pluggable
optic transceivers installed) from customer-specified devices to ports at the front of the switch.
2. Connect device cables to small form factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers. Start with port 0 and
continue sequentially to the left through port 23.
3. Perform one of the following:
a. If the switch is installed on a table or desk top, bundle and secure the Fibre Channel cables
as directed by the customer.
b. If the switch is installed in a customer-supplied equipment rack, bundle Fibre Channel cables
from the switch and other equipment (groups of 16 maximum), and secure them as directed
by the customer.
4. Set the switch online.
