Powering Down
Disconnect power to both power supplies to power the fabric module off.
Configuring the Fabric Module
The HPE Composable Fabric module is shipped configured to use DHCP. If you are installing the fabric module in an
environment that uses DHCP and the DHCP server has been configured as needed, the fabric module is ready to
communicate with HPE Composable Fabric Manager. After the link is established, use the HPE Composable Fabric
Manager UI to configure the fabric module (see the HPE Composable Fabric Manager Online Help).
If you are using static IP addresses or are having issues communicating with HPE Composable Fabric Manager, see the
"Initial Fabric Module Setup" section in the document: HPE Composable Fabric Module Administrator Guide using Linux
and CLI. After you complete the static IP configuration, use the HPE Composable Fabric Manager UI to configure the
fabric module (see the HPE Composable Fabric Manager Online Help).
