EMC Connectrix B Series v6.2 ED-DCX-4S-B Hardware Reference Manual

ED-DCX-4S-B Configuration Overview

Note: If the PB-DCX-16EB encryption blade is installed, refer to the Fabric OS

Encryption Administrator’s Guide for the procedures to configure the

encryption functions.

The ED-DCX-4S-B must be configured before it is connected to the

fabric, and all of the configuration commands must be entered

through the active CP blade. The ED-DCX-4S-B configuration

includes the following parameters:

◆ IP address and subnet mask for the chassis

◆ IP addresses, host names, subnet masks, and gateway addresses

for both CP blades

◆ Switch name

◆ Domain ID (optional)

◆ WWN (optional)

The ED-DCX-4S-B WWN is initially set by the factory to match the

license ID (which is based on the chassis serial number).

The configuration information is mirrored to the standby CP blade,

which allows the current configuration to remain available even if the

active CP blade fails. The configuration information for the

ED-DCX-4S-B is stored in the WWN cards and the flash memory of

the CP blades. The configuration can be backed up to a workstation

(uploaded) and then downloaded to the active CP blade if necessary.

Figure 4 on page 45 illustrates the flow of the basic configuration

tasks.
