The Ethernet interface on your switch

IPv4 addresses assigned to individual Virtual Fabrics are assigned to IP over Fibre Channel (IPFC)
network interfaces. In Virtual Fabrics environments, a single chassis can be assigned to multiple
fabrics, each of which is logically distinct and separate from one another. Each IPFC point of
connection to a given chassis needs a separate IPv4 address and prefix to be accessible to a
management host. For more information on how to set up these IPFC interfaces to your Virtual
Fabric, refer to Chapter 10, “Managing Virtual Fabrics”.
Displaying the network interface settings
If an IP address has not been assigned to the network interface (Ethernet), you must connect to the
Fabric OS CLI using a console session on the serial port. For more information, see “Console
sessions using the serial port” on page 16. Otherwise, connect using SSH.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
2. Enter the ipAddrShow command.
