Configuring the Switch
• Bound WWN — Enter a World Wide Name (WWN) in the proper format
(xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) or a nickname configured through the HAFM
application. The device with this WWN or nickname will have exclusive
attachment to the port if Port Binding is enabled. If a valid WWN or nickname is
not entered in this field, but the Port Binding check box is checked (enabled),
then no devices can connect to the port. If you enter a WWN or nickname in this
field and do not place a check in the Port Binding check box, the WWN or
nickname will be stored, and all devices can connect to the port.
Procedure (Open Systems mode)
To configure ports in Open Systems mode, use the following steps:
1. Choose Ports from the Configure menu on the menu bar.
The Configure Ports dialog box displays.

the port. For example, use “XYZ Server,” where XYZ is the brand name of the
server.
