Monitoring and Managing the Switch
Clear Link Incident Alert(s)
Click this to clear the attention indicator on the Hardware View, the Port List View,
and the Performance View. In addition, the procedure clears the alert description in
Port Properties dialog boxes. If there are no link incident alerts set for a port, no
actions occur. Although you can manually clear link incidents, they may also be
cleared by actions outside of the user interface, such as when rebooting the HAFM
server.
Reset Port
Click to display a confirmation dialog box. Click Yes on that dialog box to reset the
port. If a switch is attached to the port and online, this operation sends a link reset to
the attached switch, otherwise this action disables port beaconing for the port. If the
port is in a failed state, such as after failing a loopback test, the reset restores the port
to an operational state, clearing the service required (amber) LED. The reset does not
affect other ports in the switch.
Port Binding
Click to display the Bind WWN dialog box (Figure 2–9). Use this dialog box to allow a
device with a specific WWN or nickname to have exclusive connection to a port. To
use this dialog box, refer to the following paragraphs.
Figure 2–9: Bind WWN dialog box
Bind WWN dialog box parameters:
• Port Binding: Click this check box to place check mark in the box and enable
WWN binding for the port. When enabled, only a specific device can
communicate through the port. This device is specified by the WWN or nickname
entered into the Bound WWN field (either the Attached WWN or WWN options).
With the check box cleared, any device can communicate through the port even if
a WWN or nickname is specified in the Bound WWN field.
