IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node Introduction and Implementation Guide
With DPOD, ports are licensed as they come online. With the FC5022 16Gb SAN Scalable
Switch, the first 12 ports reporting (on a first-come, first-served basis) on boot-up are
assigned licenses. These 12 ports may be any combination of external or internal Fibre
Channel (FC) ports. After all licenses have been assigned, you can manually move those
licenses from one port to another. As this is dynamic, no defined ports are reserved except
ports 0 and 29. The FC5022 16Gb ESB Switch has the same behavior, the only difference is
the number of ports.

1.5.6 IBM Flex System FC3171 8Gb SAN Switch
The IBM Flex System FC3171 8Gb SAN Switch is a full-fabric Fibre Channel switch module
that can be converted to a pass-thru module when configured in transparent mode. This can
be done using the switch GUI or CLI and then the Module can be converted back to a full
function SAN switch at some future date. The switch requires a reset when turning
transparent mode on or off.

The I/O module has 14 internal ports and 6 external ports. All ports are licensed on the switch
as there are no port licensing requirements.
as there are no port licensing requirements.
On this switch when in Full Fabric mode, access to all of the Fibre Channel Security features
is provided. Security includes additional services available, being Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
and Secure Shell (SSH). In addition, RADIUS servers may be used for device and user
authentication. Once SSL/SSH is enabled, then the Security features are available to be
configured. This allows the SAN administrator to configure which devices are allowed to login
to the Full Fabric Switch module, by creating security sets with security groups. These are
configured on a per switch basis. The security features are not available when in pass-thru
mode.

The switch can be configured via either command line, or via QuickTools.
Command Line: Access the switch via the console port through the IBM Flex System
Chassis Management Module or through the Ethernet Port. This method requires a basic
understanding of the CLI commands.

QuickTools: Requires a current version of the JRE on your workstation before pointing a
web browser to the switch’s IP address. The IP Address of the switch must be configured.
QuickTools does not require a license and code is included.

1.5.7 IBM Flex System FC3171 8Gb SAN Pass-thru
The IBM Flex System FC3171 8Gb SAN Pass-thru I/O module is an 8 Gbps Fibre Channel
pass-thru SAN module that has 14 internal ports and six external ports. It is shipped with all
ports enabled.

Note: If there is a potential future requirement to enable full fabric capability, then this
switch should not be purchased and instead the FC3171 8Gb SAN Switch should be
considered.
