Install a standalone switch

1. Unpack the switch and verify the contents as
described in "Verify the SN6000B 16Gb 48-port
FC switch carton contents" (page 1)
the SN3000B 16Gb 24-port FC switch carton
contents" (page 2).
2. Apply the adhesive rubber feet to prevent the
switch from sliding off the supporting surface.
a. Clean the indentations at each corner on the
bottom of the switch to ensure that they are
free of dust or other debris.
b. With the adhesive side against the chassis,
place one rubber foot in each indentation
and press into place.
3. Place the switch on a flat, sturdy surface.

Power on the switch

1. Connect a power cord to each power supply
present:
For the 48-port switch, connect the power
cords to both power supplies and then to
power sources on separate circuits to protect
against AC failure.
For the 24-port switch, connect a power cord
to either the single power supply present or
to both power supplies, if an optional second
power supply is present. Then connect the
power cords to power sources on separate
circuits to protect against AC failure.
Ensure that the cords have a minimum service
loop of 6 inches available and are routed to
avoid stress.
NOTE: If you are configuring the second
(optional) power supply, the 24-port switch
will also have two power cords.
2. Power on the power supplies by setting the AC
switches to the on position (|).
The power supply LEDs are amber until POST is
complete, and then change to green. The switch
takes several minutes to boot and complete POST.
NOTE: Power is supplied to the switch as
soon as the first power supply is connected
and turned on.

Standard screwdriver
If you are using static IP addressing, you will need
the following items (not required if you are using
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)):
Fixed IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) for the switch
◦
◦ Subnet mask value
◦ Default gateway value
World Wide Name (WWN), located on the
switch ID pull-out tab
Ethernet connection (hub or switch)
Ethernet and Fibre Channel cables
Disk array with Fibre Channel ports
Browser that allows pop-up windows
Connect the serial cable to the serial port on the
switch and to an RS-232 serial port on the
workstation.
If the serial port is RJ-45 instead of RS-232,
remove the adapter on the end of the serial cable
and insert the exposed RJ-45 connector into the
RJ-45 serial port on the workstation.
Disable any serial communication programs
running on the workstation.
Open a terminal emulator (such as HyperTerminal
on a PC, or TERM, TIP, or Kermit in a UNIX
environment) and configure the application as
follows:
For most Windows systems:
Bits per second: 9,600
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
For most UNIX systems:
tip /dev/ttyb -9600
If ttyb is already in use, try ttya instead:
tip /dev/ttya -9600
