You hear a click when the switch module is locked in the blade server chassis I/O
module bay. If the power is on in the blade server chassis, locking the switch module in
the module bay provides power and turn-ons the switch module and the LEDs.
The switch module then runs POSTs. These tests can take up to two minutes to
complete. After the power/status LED light is steady green for at least two minutes,
the module is ready to use.

Start from port 0, then port 17, and then the rest of the ports when cabling the SFP+
ports.
If you use QSFP ports instead of SFP+ ports, transfer the port license from port 0 and
17 to the desired QSFP ports. The QSFP ports must be unused and no additional port
licenses are available. Ports 0 and 17 are prelicensed at the factory.
You are now ready to insert more SFP+/QSFP optical transceivers, if needed. Be sure to
use only Brocade-branded SFP+/QSFP optical transceivers. The FC switch module does
not recognize unapproved products.

Serial connection

To log in to the switch module through the serial connection on the front panel, port-side
view, perform the following steps:
1
Connect the console cable with the micro-USB connector to the console port on the
switch module and to a USB port on the workstation.
2
Disable any serial communication programs running on the workstation such as
synchronization programs.
3
Open a terminal emulator application such as PuTTY, XShell, or SecureCRT on a
Windows PC, or TERM, TIP, or C-Kermit in a LINUX environment. Configure the
application as follows:
In a WIndows environment, use the following values:
– Bits per second—9600
– Databits—8
– Parity—None
– Stop bits—1
– Flow control—None; must be disabled on the host side
NOTE:
to a remote terminal. You must disable flow control on the customer-side
remote terminal server in addition to the host-side clients.
