Fibre Channel address

Celerity FC adapters are configured with a unique
address designated by the Institute of Electrical
and Electronic Engineers. The WorldWide Port
Name (WWN) and Node Name are the two
components of the address assigned to Fibre
Channel products. This address, stored in flash
memory, allows the system to recognize the
Celerity Storage Adapter as a unique part of your
configuration. The address is clearly marked on
the back of the board for easy identification.
Please keep a reference copy of the number in a
safe place or write in the space provided on this
page.
Celerity FC storage adapter WWNs are assigned
for each channel. The WWN listed on your
storage adapter is assigned to the first channel (0).
Sequential WWNs apply for additional channels.
