FCIP Tunneling service
The FCIP Tunneling service enables passive Fibre Channel frames to “tunnel” through TCP/IP
networks by encapsulating them in TCP packets and then reconstructing them at the other end of the
link.
NOTE: XPath OS supports FCIP only between two MP Routers.
See the
HP StorageWorks XPath OS 7.4.x administrator guide
for additional FCIP Tunneling
information.
User interfaces
XPath OS 7.4.x provides both a Graphical User Interface (GUI) application, Advanced Web Tools,
and a Command Line Interface (CLI). For information on how to use the GUI, see the
HP
StorageWorks XPath OS 7.4.x Advanced Web Tools administrator guide
. For CLI command
descriptions, see the
HP StorageWorks XPath OS 7.4.x command reference guide
.
Upgrading an 8-port base model to a 16-port full model
The MP Router is available with either eight ports, 0 through 7 (Base model) or 16 ports 0 through
15 (Full model) activated. If your MP Router shipped with eight active ports, you can activate the
remaining eight ports by purchasing and installing the HP StorageWorks MP Router Upgrade
License.
NOTE: Check port status to verify whether the license is pre-installed. For example, use the
portshow command for ports 8 through 15. If the port status output indicates Started and
Licensed, then all 16 ports are activated.
9. If ports 8 through 15 show no License, purchase the HP StorageWorks MP Router Upgrade
License from an authorized HP representative.
Your HP representative requires the MP Router’s World Wide Number (WWN) in order to
assign a license key. Enter the switchshow command to obtain the WWN of your MP Router.
10.Install the HP StorageWorks MP Router Upgrade License. The license key is a string of
approximately 16 uppercase and lowercase letters and digits.
a. Log in to the MP Router as admin.
b. Enter the licenseadd command, followed by the license key enclosed in quotation marks.
NOTE: Enter the license key into the system exactly as issued. If you enter it incorrectly, the license
will not function properly.
