Technical Specifications Fibre Channel Port Specifications The Fibre Channel ports in the SAN Switch 2/8V, SAN Switch 2/16V and SAN Switch 2/16N are compatible with SWL and LWL SFP transceivers. The strength of the signal is determined by the type of transceiver in use. The ports meet all required safety standards. -
Page 90: Serial Port Specifications
Technical Specifications Serial Port Specifications The serial port is located on the port side of the switch. It is a three-wire RS-232 port with a DB-9 male connector, designed to connect to a DTE port. Note: To provide dust and ESD protection, keep the safety plug on the serial port whenever the port is not in use. -
Page 91: Power Supply Specifications
Technical Specifications Power Supply Specifications The power supplies are universal and capable of functioning worldwide without using voltage jumpers or switches. They meet IEC 61000-4-5 surge voltage requirements and are autoranging in terms of accommodating input voltages and line frequencies. Each power supply has its own built-in fan for cooling, pushing the air toward the port side of the switch. -

Page 101: Glossary
glossary Glossary This glossary defines terms used in this guide or related to this product and is not a comprehensive glossary of computer terms. Glossary AL_PA Arbitrated loop physical address. A unique 8-bit value assigned during loop initialization to a port in an arbitrated loop. alias server A fabric software facility that supports multicast group management. - Page 102 Glossary buffer buffer flow control Management of the frame transmission rate in either a point-to-point topology or in an arbitrated loop. Command line interface. Interface that depends entirely on the use of commands, such as through telnet or SNMP, and does not involve a GUI. compact flash sed in a manner similar to hard disk storage.
- Page 103 Glossary domain ID Unique identifier for all switches in a fabric, used in routing frames. Usually automatically assigned by the principal switch, but can be assigned manually. The domain ID for an HP switch can be any integer between 1 and 239. Generally, the default domain ID is 1.
- Page 104 Glossary F_Port Fabric port. A port that is able to transmit under fabric protocol and interface over links. Can be used to connect an N_Port to a switch. fabric A fibre channel network containing two or more switches in addition to hosts and devices.
- Page 105 Glossary Fibre channel service protocol. The common protocol for all fabric services, transparent to the fabric type or topology. FSPF Fabric shortest path first. HP’s routing protocol for fibre channel switches. Fx_Port A fabric port that can operate as either an F_Port or FL_Port. G_Port Generic port.
- Page 106 Glossary K28.5 A special 10-bit character used to indicate the beginning of a transmission word that performs fibre channel control and signaling functions. The first seven bits of the character are the comma pattern. kernel flash Flash (temporary) memory connected to the peripheral bus of the processor, and visible within the processor's memory space.
- Page 107 Glossary loop failure Loss of signal within a loop for any period of time, or loss of synchronization for longer than the time-out value. loop initialization The logical procedure used by an L_Port to discover its environment. Can be used to assign AL_PA addresses, detect loop failure, or reset a node.
- Page 108 Glossary name server Frequently used to indicate Simple Name Server. NL_Port Node loop port. A node port that has arbitrated loop capabilities. Used to connect an equipment port to the fabric in a loop configuration through an FL_Port. node A fibre channel device that contains an N_Port or NL_Port. non-participating mode A mode in which an L_Port in a loop is inactive and cannot arbitrate or send frames, but can retransmit any received transmissions.
- Page 109 Glossary port cage The metal casing extending out of the fibre channel port on the switch, and into which a GBIC or SFP transceiver can be inserted. Port_Name The unique identifier assigned to a fibre channel port. Communicated during login and port discovery.
- Page 110 Glossary RAID Redundant Array Of Independent Disks. A collection of disk drives that appear as a single volume to the server and are fault tolerant through mirroring or parity checking. request rate The rate at which requests arrive at a servicing entity. route As applies to a fabric, the communication path between two switches.
- Page 111 Glossary SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol. An internet management protocol that uses either IP for network-level functions and UDP for transport-level functions, or TCP/IP for both. Can be made available over other protocols, such as UDP/IP, because it does not rely on the underlying communication protocols. Simple Name Server.
- Page 112 Glossary transmission word A group of four transmission characters. trap (SNMP) The message sent by an SNMP agent to inform the SNMP management station of a critical error. U_Port Universal port. A switch port that can operate as a G_Port, E_Port, F_Port, or FL_Port.
