HP StorageWorks 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch Command Line Interface Guide 63
NOTE: Although transparent routing can be configured with the CLI, the QuickTools web applet and
Enterprise Fabric Management Suite are designed to simplify the configuration process. See the HP
StorageWorks 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch QuickTools Switch Management User Guide and the HP
StorageWorks 8/20q and SN6000 Fibre Channel Switch Enterprise Fabric Management Suite User
Guide.
To configure transparent routing:
1. Determine what devices on the local fabric require access to devices on the remote fabric. Local devices
must be attached directly to the 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch. In this example, the device WWNs are
as follows:
• Local device: 21:00:00:e0:8b:0e:d3:59
• Remote device: 22:00:00:04:cf:a8:7f:2d
2. Configure one or more TR_Ports on the local 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch:
8/20q FC Switch #> admin start
8/20q FC Switch (admin) #> config edit
8/20q FC Switch (admin-config) #> set config port 1
A list of attributes with formatting and current values will follow.
Enter a new value or simply press the ENTER key to accept the current value.
If you wish to terminate this process before reaching the end of the list
press 'q' or 'Q' and the ENTER key to do so.
Configuring Port Number: 1
------------------------
AdminState (1=Online, 2=Offline, 3=Diagnostics, 4=Down) [Online]
LinkSpeed (1=1Gb/s, 2=2Gb/s, 4=4Gb/s, 8=8Gb/s, A=Auto) [Auto ]
PortType (GL, G, F, FL, TR) [GL ] TR
SymPortName (string, max=32 chars) [Port1 ]

.
Finished configuring attributes.
This configuration must be saved (see config save command) and
activated (see config activate command) before it can take effect.
To discard this configuration use the config cancel command.
8/20q FC Switch (admin-config) #> config save
8/20q FC Switch (admin-config) #> config activate
3. Connect the TR_Port to the remote fabric. For remote HP StorageWorks B-Series or C-Series fabrics, the
switch to which the TR_Port is connected must support NPIV, and for B-Series fabrics, the interoperability
mode must be configured to InteropMode=0. Other B-Series switches in the remote fabric need not
support NPIV.
4. Map local devices to remote devices by creating an inter-fabric zone. The inter-fabric zone contains the
port WWNs of the local device, the remote device, and the TR_Port. The name of the inter-fabric zone
begins with IFZ followed by the lowest device port WWN followed by the remaining port WWN, all
uppercase, separated by underscores (_).
a. Create the inter-fabric zone:
8/20q FC Switch #> admin start
8/20q FC Switch (admin) #> zoning edit
8/20q FC Switch (admin-zoning) #>zone create
IFZ_210000E08B0ED359_22000004CFA87F2D
b. Add the device and TR_Port WWNs to the inter-fabric zone:
8/20q FC Switch (admin-zoning) #>zone add IFZ_210000E08B0ED359_22000004CFA87F2D
21:00:00:e0:8b:0e:d3:59 22:00:00:04:cf:a8:7f:2d 20:01:00:c0:dd:0d:53:a5
