The name can be any combination of alphanumeric characters, up to eight characters. · Configuration Protocol. Toggle DHCP Configuration enables or disables support for Dynamic When DHCP is enabled, the FC1202 will request a dynamic IP address from the DHCP server on the Ethernet network. Some DHCP servers allow a lease reservation to be set up for an IP address by providing the server with the Ethernet MAC address. The DHCP server will then provide the same IP address to the FC1202. This setup can be useful for remote management of the FC1202 such Quantum FC1202 User's Guide 53 Chapter 2 FC1202 Bridge Serial/Telnet User Interface Perform Configuration as Telnet or Visual Manager, because the method of setting up a lease reservation varies depending on the DHCP server being used. Contact your Network Administrator for assistance. Note: To use the DHCP feature, a DHCP server must be operational on the Ethernet network. If the DHCP feature is used when there is no DHCP server, DHCP standards require that the FC1202 wait three minutes for a response from a DHCP server before timing out. · · Change SNMP Settings is not supported. 9) Change Security Settings changes security settings, including the user name and password. The default user name is root and the default password is password. Caution: To ensure security, change the user name and password from the default settings. Note: Note: The security settings entered here affect all user interfaces. User names and passwords should be unique and kept confidential. Using a combination of letters and numbers when creating user names and passwords is recommended. Fibre Channel Configuration 2 In the Configuration Menu, choose Fibre Channel Configuration to configure the Fibre Channel port. The Fibre Channel Configuration Menu allows the configuration of ALPA settings, discovery mode, tape backup settings, port mode, default map, and override settings.

Auto Sense or N_Port: Toggle Port Mode (default: N_Port) changes the port mode to either · Auto Sense, Soft AL_PA: In this mode, the Fibre Channel port tries to negotiate as a loop. If it is not successful, then the Fibre Channel port negotiates as a fabric. If the port comes up as a loop, it then determines whether it is on a private or public loop. N_Port (default): This mode allows the FC1202 to bypass the loop · negotiation and come up as a fabric only. Use this setting if a HP switch is being used. [. . . ] But this file lets the Windows 2000 Device Manager register a Interface Controller's Controller LUN as a "System" device, so that the Device Manager thereafter will not consider the controller LUN to be an unknown or "newly discovered" device with every reboot. Using this file, a User only has to "identify the Interface Controller to the Device Manager" once. To install (register) the Interface Controller with a host Windows 2000 PC that has the FC HBA that will connect to the Interface Controller, use the included INF file (located on the user documentation CD). A controller LUN must also set up on the Interface Controller so that Windows 2000 can "discover" it. [. . . ]
