3. If the firmware version is not Fabric OS v4.4.0 or later, back up the configuration and install
Fabric OS v4.4.0 on both CPs. For instructions, see “Verifying Compatible Fabric OS Version”
on page 8.
4. Log in to one logical switch and change the account passwords from the default values, then
log in to the other logical switch and change the passwords from the default values.
5. If the logical switches are in separate fabrics, synchronize the fabrics by connecting them to a
common external network time protocol (NTP) server
NOTE
If the fabric contains any switches running Fabric OS v4.4.0, v5.0.1, v5.1.0, v5.2.0, or v5.3.0
the server must support a full NTP client. For switches running Fabric OS v3.2.0, the server can
be SNTP or NTP.
a. Open a telnet or SSH session to either of the logical switches.
b. Type tsClockServer “IP address of NTP server”.
c. The IP address can be verified by reentering the command with no operand, which
displays the current setting.
d. Repeat for the other logical switch.
SW24000switch0:admin> tsclockserver "132.163.135.131"
SW24000switch0:admin> tsclockserver
132.163.135.131
SW24000switch1:admin> tsclockserver "132.163.135.131"
SW24000switch1:admin> tsclockserver
132.163.135.131
6. Ensure that both logical switches have a Secure Fabric OS license activated, as described in
“Verifying or Activating Secure Fabric OS and Advanced Zoning Licenses” on page 9
NOTE
Only one license key is required to enable the same feature on both logical switches.
