Fabric and Edge switch configuration

• Allow multiple logins. The recommended fabric login setting is the maximum allowed per
port and per switch.
• Use only WWN zoning throughout the fabric. Access Gateway does not support domain ID and
other types of zoning schemes.
• Include the Access Gateway WWN or the port WWN of the N_Ports, also include the HBA WWNs
that will be connected to AG F_Ports to the ACL list in ACL policies.
• Allow inband queries for forwarded fabric management requests from the hosts. Add the
Access Gateway switch WWN to the access list if inband queries are restricted.
NOTE
Before connecting Access Gateway to a Fabric OS fabric, disable the Fabric OS Management Server
Platform Service.
Verifying the switch mode
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Enter the switchShow command to display the current switch configuration.
