Maintaining The 8Gb San Switch; Installing Dust Covers In Empty Ports; Replacing An Sfp Transceiver; Connecting With A Management Station - HP StorageWorks T5527A User Manual

You can connect a management station to one switch with Ethernet while managing other switches
connected to the first switch with FC. To do so, set the FC gateway address of each of the other switches
to be managed to the FC IP address of the first switch.
The gateway address of the first switch should be set to whatever the gateway address is for the subnet
on which the first switch resides. See

However, it is critical that environmental conditions, described in
are met to help prevent switch failure due to heat stress or improper air flow.

Installing dust covers in empty ports

The dust covers included in the 8Gb SAN Switch shipping carton (see
ports where SFPs are not installed. Installing dust covers ensures proper air flow and helps reduce dust
contamination of the switch.
