HP C-series Nexus 5010/20 Converged Network Switch quick setup
This procedure is intended for users who are familiar with Cisco MDS FC switches and have experience
merging C-series MDS FC switches into an existing MDS FC fabric. Use this procedure to enable
servers with CNAs attached to the HP C-series Nexus 5010/20 Converged Network Switch to access
devices on the attached C-series FC fabric.
IMPORTANT:
If you are not familiar with Cisco FC switches or you do not have experience merging C-series FC
switches into an existing FC fabric, use the detailed instructions found in the switch user guide to set
up your switch.
HP recommends that you use the VFC port assignments listed in Table 7.
