Configuring FA-PWWNs
16
This section includes an FA-PWWN configuration procedure for each of the following two topologies:
• An FA-PWWN for an HBA device that is connected to an Access Gateway switch.
• An FA-PWWN for an HBA device that is connected directly to an edge switch.
These topologies are shown in Figure 55.

Configuring an FA-PWWN for an HBA connected to an Access Gateway
For this procedure, some of the steps are to be executed on the switch and some are to be
executed on the server.
1. Log in to the edge switch to which the Access Gateway is directly connected.
2. Assign the FA-PWWN.
• If you are manually assigning a WWN, enter the following:
fapwwn --assign -ag AG_WWN -port AG_port -v Virtual_PWWN
• If you want the WWN to be automatically assigned, enter the following:
fapwwn --assign -ag AG_WWN -port AG_port
3. Enter the following command:
fapwwn --show -ag all
You should see output similar to the following sample. (The output is split, for better
readability.)
