Assigning port names
To assign names to individual FC ports of our director, we click the specific
director in the IN-VSN navigation tree to have the director view displayed. Then
we click the Ports tab to have a list of all 64 ports. This is shown in Figure 3-34.
Figure 3-34 IN-VSN: Director view with all ports
This list displays all 64 physical ports of our director with their attributes, such as:
Default names
Status: whether you have signal light (Online) or not (Offline)
Device: World Wide Node Name (WWNN) of the attached device or server
Zones which the ports belong to
We can use this list to enter the new names in the Name column, as shown in
Figure 3-35.
