Configuring RADs and mSAN Connections
3-9
Configuring R_Ports for mSANs
3. To configure the R_Port using different parameters that are
displayed, use SANvergence Manager. Refer to instructions for
configuring R_Port parameters in Chapter 4 of the McDATA
SANvergence Manager User Manual (620-000189).
4. Note that the FC port timeouts, E_D_TOV and R_A_TOV, must
be configured the same on the SAN Router and all Fibre Channel
switches in an attached fabric. To configure these parameters,
refer to
Configuring Advanced FC Port Parameters on page 3-10.
Zone policy Use SANvergence Manager to set this parameter. Options are Append
Router Zones, and No Router Synch (Synchronization):
Append Router Zones - The SAN Router Storage zone set is
appended to the active zone set on the fabric connected by the R_Port.
No Zone Synch - The zone set information between the mSAN and
the fabric connected by the R_Port is not synchronized.
The SAN Router Zone Policy specifies how zone information is
synchronized between the mSAN and the connected fabrics. For more
detailed information on the set SAN Router Zone Policy parameter,
refer to the SANvergence Manager User Guide.
Fabric Name used to create the FC ID (name) used by the SAN Router to
identify the attached fabric.
Insistent Domain
ID
This is a boolean (enable/disable) flag to make the preferred domain ID
a required domain ID. If enabled, the value set for the preferred domain
ID becomes the domain ID when the fabric initializes. If the preferred
domain ID is not accepted by the principal switch in the fabric, the
R_Port will be isolated from the fabric.
