1 Introducing the Brocade Enterprise and Entry
SAN Switch Modules
This Installation Guide contains information about setting up and installing the Brocade*
Enterprise SAN Switch Module SBCEBFCSW and the Brocade Entry SAN Switch Module
SBCEBFCESW into an Intel
®
Blade Server Chassis. Throughout this document, the term
switch module generically refers to both types of switch modules.
You can install up to two switch modules into an Intel Blade Server Chassis. For installation
details, see Chapter 2, “Installing and replacing a switch module,” on page 11 and Chapter
3, “Information panel LEDs and external Fibre Channel ports,” on page 21. For additional
information, see the instructions in your Intel Blade Server documentation.
The switch module is a Fibre Channel component that consists of 16 ports:
• Two external Fibre Channel user ports used to connect to external Fibre Channel
devices
• 14 internal ports to connect to the Intel Blade Server bays
You can manage and configure the switch module through multiple interfaces. For more
information, see Chapter 4, “Configuring the switch module through the Telnet interface,”
on page 25 and Chapter 5, “Configuring the switch module through the Advanced Web
Tools interface,” on page 33.
You can obtain up-to-date information about the switch module and other Intel server
products at http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/blade.htm.
The Enterprise version comes with a Full SAN Scaling (up to 239 switches) license. This
license allows for up to 239 domain attachments within a fabric. The Entry version is
limited to a two-domain fabric. The Entry version is upgradeable through the purchase of
an optional license key that provides Full SAN Scaling capabilities.
Record information about the switch module in the following table. You will need this
information when you register the switch module with Intel.
