    HP recommends these values be changed from the defaults. All settings within the router configuration are pre-set with default values. These values are set to allow the router to be installed into most HP environments with little or no configuration changes.
  • Page 49: Ui Overview

    Configuration Overview UI Overview The router supports the following user interfaces: Visual Manager Serial/Telnet Each UI is introduced in the following paragraphs. Visual Manager Visual Manager allows any standard web browser to view and change router configuration. Information is dynamically generated in an HTML format so that any web browser can access it.
  • Page 50: Common Configuration Settings

    Configuration Overview Common Configuration Settings To provide connectivity between hosts and devices, the router must establish an address on each connected FC network and SCSI bus. The following paragraphs discuss configuration settings that are commonly modified and are available in the Visual Manager UI and the Serial/Telnet UI.
  • Page 51: Fibre Channel Port Configuration

    Configuration Overview Fibre Channel Port Configuration By default, the configuration of the FC ports is set to N_Port, which minimizes conflicts when both the router and another FC device, such as a switch, are using Auto Sensing for FC ports. Alternatively, the configuration of the FC ports can be set to Auto Sensing, which allows the router to detect whether it is connected to an Arbitrated Loop or a Switched Fabric.
  • Page 52: Fibre Channel Switched Fabric Configuration

    Configuration Overview Hard addressing is recommended for FC Arbitrated Loop environments where it is important that the FC device addresses do not change. Device address changes can affect the mapping represented by the host operating system to the application, and have adverse effects. An example is tape library installation, where the application configuration requires fixed device identification for proper operation.
  • Page 53: Logical Unit Management

    Configuration Overview (16 and up, for example). This situation can be resolved by configuring the router to use hard addressing and setting the AL_PA to a value less then 16 that the HBA will be able to map. For example, depending on the FC HBA, if the hard AL_PA selection is 1, then the address is 1.
  • Page 54: Indexed Maps

    Configuration Overview Indexed Maps An Indexed map is initially empty and can be modified by the user. Auto Assigned Maps An Auto Assigned map is built dynamically and contains all of the devices found during discovery. This map will change automatically any time the discovery process finds a change in the devices attached.

  • Page 213 Addressing Methods and Table Structures Fibre Channel (FC) and SCSI systems use different methods of addressing devices. The router has a method of translating device IDs so each SCSI device is mapped to the appropriate Fibre Channel LUN. The SCSI buses establish the bus connections between devices.

  • Page 216: Scc (Scsi Controller Command) Addressing Method

    Addressing Methods and Table Structures SCC (SCSI Controller Command) Addressing Method When a router is configured to use SCSI Controller Command addressing (SCC) and a command is received, the router either will respond as a controller device to the FCP Initiator or will route the FCP request to a specified BUS:TARGET:LUN. If a request using the Peripheral Device Addressing method is received (an FCP command with the LUN field bits 7 and 6 of byte 0 set to 0), the router routes the request to the internal processor, which acts on the command directly.
  • Page 217: Auto Assigned Addressing Method

    Addressing Methods and Table Structures Auto Assigned Addressing Method The Auto Assigned addressing method is created through SCSI device discovery on power up or reset. As the router performs device discovery on the SCSI bus, the index table FCP LUN values are filled with adjacent FCP LUN referencing each subsequent SCSI device.
  • Page 218: Indexed Addressing Method

    Addressing Methods and Table Structures Indexed Addressing Method Indexed addressing allows for host bus adapter (HBA) drivers that use only Peripheral Device Addressing to access SCSI devices attached to the router. This addressing is done by use of a table, which is indexed by sequential LUN values, indicating the selected BUS:TARGET:LUN devices.
