Installing and Connecting the 2640 SAN Router
2-11
• If there is no ping response, contact your network
administrator to set up connectivity between the network
management station and the SAN Router.
You are now ready to configure the SAN Router using the Element
Manager.
Before You Connect
the SAN Router to
the Network
You have set the network management IP address to suit your
network environment. The SAN Router is also shipped with a default
SAN Router IP address and a subnet mask which are configured at
the factory. McDATA recommends that these default parameters also
be changed to fit your network environment, all ports be configured
to suit your network, and all IP addresses are valid and unique before
connecting cables. See the Administration and Configuration Manual for
more information.
Task 8: Connecting Intelligent/TCP Ports
The GE SAN or intelligent ports are labeled 13, 14, 15, and 16 on the
front of the SAN Router as shown in
Figure 2-3. The default settings
depend upon which configuration was purchased.
• Connect the iFCP port to MAN/WAN network (next hop IP
router or SAN Router).
• Connect the iSCSI port to the iSCSI initiator or dedicated iSCSI
LAN network.
NOTE: Ensure that you have the IP addressing information available so these
ports can be correctly configured for the connected network.
