  • Page 17: Introduction

    Introduction Overview The Embedded Web Server (EWS) is a web-based graphical user interface (GUI), based on HTML, that enables the user to administer products, monitor products and ports, and perform tasks to manage a simple Storage Area Network (SAN). You can also use EWS to perform troubleshooting tasks and upgrade product firmware.
  • Page 18 Introduction — Parameters for product management through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), the Command Line Interface (CLI), the Open System Management Server (OSMS) feature, or the Fibre Connection (FICON) Management Server (FMS) feature. Note: The Edge Switch 2/24 does not support out-of-band management through FMS.

    When naming ports, you may want to name each port based on the device attached to the port. For example, if the port is attached to an e-mail server, you might name the port email1 server port 2. The important point is to relate the name of the port to the device that is attached to the port.
  • Page 28 If a device is connected and logged in to the fabric when extended distance is enabled or disabled on the corresponding port, the HP product sends OLS for 5 milliseconds to force the device to log in again and obtain the new BB_Credit value set for the port.

    Server-level access control is called persistent binding. Persistent binding uses configuration information stored on the server and is implemented through the server’s host bus adapter (HBA) driver. The process binds a server device name to a specific Fibre Channel storage volume or logical unit number (LUN), through a specific HBA and storage port WWN.
  • Page 59: Zoning Concepts

    Access can also be controlled at the storage device as an addition or enhancement to redundant array of independent disks (RAID) controller software. Data access is controlled within the storage device, and server HBA access to each LUN is explicitly limited (access is blocked by default). Storage-level access control: ■...
