Perform the procedure in this section to configure names and operating

characteristics for the switch ports.

To configure switch Fibre Channel ports:

1. At the Switch View, select Configure > Ports. The Configure Ports tab

displays (Figure 42).

Figure 42: Configure Ports tab

a. For each port to be configured, enter a port name of 24 or fewer

alphanumeric characters in the associated Name field. The port name

should identify the device to which the port is attached.

b. Click the check box in the Blocked column to block or unblock a port

(default is unblocked). A check mark in the box indicates the port is

blocked. Blocking a port prevents the attached device from

communicating with the switch. A blocked port continuously transmits

the offline sequence (OLS).

c. Click the check box in the LIN Alerts column to enable or disable link

incident (LIN) alerts (default is enabled). A check mark in the box

indicates alerts are enabled. When the feature is enabled and an incident

occurs on the port link, an alert indicator (yellow triangle) displays at the

Hardware View, and a message is sent to configured e-mail recipients.
