Recommendations for cable management The minimum bend radius for a 50 micron cable is 2 inches under full tensile load and 1.2 inches with no tensile load. Cables can be organized and managed in a variety of ways, for example, using cable channels on the sides of the cabinet or patch panels to minimize cable management. Following is a list of recommendations: NOTE You should not use tie wraps with optical cables because they are easily overtightened and can damage the optic fibers. Velcro-li

1. Connect the serial cable to the serial port on the switch and to an RS-232 serial port on the workstation or terminal device. If the serial port on the workstation or terminal device is RJ45 instead of RS-232, remove the adapter on the end of the serial cable and insert the exposed RJ45 connector into the RJ45 serial port on the workstation. 2. Open a terminal emulator application (such as HyperTerminal on a PC, or TERM, TIP, or Kermit in a UNIX environment), and configure the application

Setting the switch IP address You can configure the Brocade VDX 6720 with a static IP address, or you can use a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server to set the IP address of the switch. DHCP is enabled by default. The Brocade VDX 6720 supports both IPv4 and IPv6 format addresses. For information about setting static IP addresses and stateless IPv6 addresses, please see the Brocade Network OS Administrator’s Guide. Using DHCP to set the IP address When using DHCP, the Brocade VDX

Another parameters that can be changed if necessary is the VCS ID. This identifies the VCS fabric of which the switch can be a part. By default, the VCS of every VDX 6720 is 1. Change the VCS ID if you need to create a new, separate VCS fabric. If you need to change the VCS ID, use the vcs-id x parameter, where x is the new VCS ID number. vcs rbridgeid 1 vcsid 2 enable 4. Enter the copy running-config startup-config command to apply the currently running configuration, including any changes

! 1. Remove any protector plugs from the transceivers and the ports. 2. Making sure that the bail (wire handle) is in the unlocked position, place the transceiver in the correctly oriented position on the port, as shown in Figure 1. 3. Slide the SFP+ into the port until you feel it click into place; then close the bail. FIGURE 1 Installing an SFP+ in the upper row of port slots 4. If this is not a direct-connect unit, remove the protective caps from the cable end and position the cable so that

! FIGURE 2 Inserting a cable into an SFP+ Connecting to Ethernet or fast Ethernet hubs For copper connections to Ethernet hubs, a 10/100Base-TX or 1000Base-T switch, or another Brocade device, a crossover cable is required. If the hub is equipped with an uplink port, it will require a straight-through cable instead of a crossover cable. NOTE The 802.3ab standard (automatic MDI or MDIX detection) calls for automatic negotiation of the connection between two 1000Base-T ports. Therefore, a cross
