Configuring the switch
You must configure the switch before it can operate within a network and fabric.
This section provides the basic steps required for the initial setup of the switch. For
instructions on configuring the switch to operate in a network containing switches
from other vendors, refer to the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide. For specific
information related to encryption and key management, refer to the Fabric OS
Encryption Administrator's Guide Supporting Tivoli Key Lifecycle Manager (TKLM)
Environments
For more information about the commands used in these procedures, refer to the
Fabric OS Command Reference.
To configure the switch, perform the following tasks. Figure 12 on page 20
illustrates the flow of these configuration tasks.
Attention: Do not connect the switch to the network until the IP address is
correctly set.
