Viewing the Access Gateway settings
You can view the effective Access Gateway settings for the selected switch. The view can be
customized. To view the Access Gateway settings select the Access Gateway Devices tab.
Port configuration
You can configure the port types (N_Port, F_Port) on each individual port on an Access Gateway
enabled switch. When you configure ports, you can specify a global configuration policy using the Port
Configuration Policy button. By default, Advanced is selected and sets the initial defaults for port
types, groups, and the F_Port-to-N_Port mappings. When the policy is Automatic, the port type
assignments and mappings are configured automatically based on device and switch connections and
internal load-balancing and grouping; user controls are disabled.
When you configure ports, perform the tasks in the following order:
1. Configure N_Ports, if necessary. Use the Port Configuration wizard to configure a port.
2. Configure N_Port groups.
3. Configure F_Port-to-N_Port mappings. You can set up primary and secondary mappings. The
secondary mapping is the N_Port to which an F_Port is mapped when the primary N_Port mapping
goes offline.
4. Configure WWN-N_Port mappings
Editing a Port
Editing a port allows you to configure port types, port speed, and ingress rate limit.
With the Edit dialog, you can configure allowed port types, port speed, and ingress rate limit for
physical ports. To edit a port, perform the following steps.
1. Click a port in the Switch View to open the Port Admin tab.
2. Select the FC Ports tab.
3. Select the port you want to configure from the tree on the left.
