Q

Note the following about 

 

SANbox SSP supports the direct connection of its ports to initiator devices. When 
directly connecting a device to an SANbox SSP port, make sure that:

■

The device is explicitly configured for loop-only operation (point-to-point is not 
supported for directly connecting at this time). See the documentation for your 
device for more information.

■

if you are attaching a host, the SANbox SSP port mode is set to target or 
initiator-target mode. Do not directly connect storage devices or the SVM 
appliance to the SANbox SSP.

 for details on configuring port modes.
