50 Managing ports
• Restrict connections to switch with WWN. If you select this option, the switch accepts only the
incoming FCIP tunnel with the configured WWN; it also initiates a tunnel only to the desired
switch. If you do not select this option, the switch accepts FCIP connections from any other switch.
• Click one of the following:
• Listen for tunnel connections. If you select this option, the local switch listens for incoming
connections for FCIP tunnels, but does not initiate tunnel establishment.
• Initiate tunnel connection. If you select this option, the local switch sets up a TCP connection for
the FCIP tunnel to the remote switch. You must also type the IP address of the remote port.
5. Click Finish.
If the port is not stopped, the Confirm Potential Disruption window opens, notifying you that the port is
stopped before the configuration changes are applied.
6. Click Yes to stop the port and apply the configuration changes.
7. Click Close to close the Edit Port Configuration window.
The edit configuration operation continues even if you close the window before the port is configured.
After the configuration changes have been applied, the port is automatically started.
NOTE: To establish a Fibre Channel over IP ISL between two MP Routers, you must configure the ports on
both the local and remote MP Routers. At least one of the ports must be configured for listening and
initiating tunnel connections.

Renaming a port
Port names have the following characteristics:
• They must consist of at least 1 and not more than 32 characters.
• They can consist of any combination of printable characters or white spaces, excluding the following:
• Comma ( , )
• Semicolon ( ; )
•Ampersand (&)
•At sign (@)
•Percent sign (%)
•Slash (/)
•Tab
The default port names are port num, where num is an integer from 0 to 15, for example, port 0,
port 1, port 2.
NOTE: Port names are not required to be unique. If you want port names to be unique, it is up to you to
check; Advanced Web Tools does not enforce uniqueness.
