SWAN Concentrator Configurations
SWAN Concentrator Configurations
ServerNet wide area network (SWAN and SWAN 2) concentrators are connected to
Ethernet switches or hubs that are connected to ports on Ethernet 4 ServerNet
adapters (E4SAs). Each SWAN concentrator is uniquely identified by a case-sensitive
configuration track-ID. This track-ID, which is case sensitive, is an important part of the
system configuration for the SWAN concentrator.
When you install a SWAN concentrator that has already been added to the system
configuration, you must ensure that you are connecting the SWAN concentrator with
the correct configuration track-ID to the correct Ethernet switch or hub, which is, in
turn, connected to the correct ports on the correct E4SAs.
SWAN 2 concentrators can be connected to Ethernet 4 ServerNet adapters (E4SAs),
Fast Ethernet ServerNet adapters (FESAs), or Gigabit Ethernet ServerNet adapters
(GESAs).
All SWAN concentrators ordered with a the system are added to the system
configuration at the factory. To determine the factory-default configuration for your
SWAN concentrators, after you install and start your system, follow the instructions in
the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem or SWAN 2 Concentrator
Installation and Support Guide.
Refer to the WAN Subsystem Configuration and Management Manual for detailed
information about configuring a SWAN or SWAN 2 concentrator.
Ethernet Ports on PMF CRUs and IOMF CRUs
Each PMF CRU and IOMF CRU in a system has a port labeled ETHERNET. The
Ethernet LAN connected to the system consoles connects to the Ethernet port of both
PMF CRUs in group 01.
The Ethernet ports in group 01 can be used only for the LAN dedicated to OSM or
TSM. (Refer to Section 11, Planning for LAN Communications, for more information
about this LAN.) The Ethernet ports on IOMF CRUs, and on PMF CRUs that are not in
group 01, cannot be used.
