Enabling Hub Management
Use the hub RS-232 management menus to enable the hub to be managed by Fibre Channel
Manager. To enable hub management:
• Set hub IP address and network configuration options.
• Set SNMP values.
• Configure cascaded hubs (if you plan to manage hubs in a cascaded configuration).
Setting Hub IP Address and Network Configuration Options
Use this procedure to set the following parameters on the hub.
• Hub IP address
• Subnetworking mask
• Default gateway address
If you have hubs in a cascaded configuration, only perform this procedure for the parent
hub. The parent hub should be the hub that has the LAN (ethernet) connection. Refer to the
values you entered in Table1 on page42 as you set the above parameters.
To set hub IP address and network configuration options:
1. Set up an RS-232 connection between the parent hub and a PC or dumb terminal (see
Setting Up a Connection to a PC on page45 or Setting Up a Connection to a Dumb
Terminal on page46).
