Installation prerequisites

Before you begin, be sure the following items are available:

copper cable

WARNING: Disconnect the host from the power source before installing the CNA.

Recording reference numbers

The CNA ships with the IEEE address (Port 1 MAC address) clearly marked on the board.
The MAC address is a unique, 48-bit identifier for configuring the system. The Fibre Channel industry
uses the WWN derived from the MAC address for Fibre Channel connectivity. The MAC addresses are
permanent identifiers that cannot be changed.
The CNA has two ports, so it has two MAC addresses and two WWNs, one for each port. Use the serial
number when communicating with Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Determine and record the serial number,
MAC addresses, and WWNs before installation.
