9. Ensure that the Link Incident field displays None and the Reason field is blank. If an ISL
segmentation or other problem is indicated, refer to the HP StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/24
service manual to isolate the problem. If no problems are indicated, installation tasks are
complete.
NOTE: If the Open Trunking feature is installed an additional field (Congested Threshold %)
appears in the Port Properties dialog box. This field displays the active congested threshold
percentage currently configured in the Configure Open Trunking dialog box.
Unpack, inspect, and install the ethernet hub (optional)
The HAFM appliance and one or more edge switches connect through an Ethernet hub installed on
a 10/100 Mbps LAN segment. One hub port is required to connect the HAFM appliance, and one
hub port is required to connect each edge switch. A combination of up to 48 HP products can be
configured and managed by a single HAFM appliance, therefore multiple hubs may be required to
provide sufficient port connections. These hubs must be connected in accordance with the hub
manufacturer’s specifications. HP recommends using a star or hub-and-spoke topology when
connecting multiple hubs. The HAFM appliance must be connected to the center hub, and there
should never be more than two hubs between the HAFM appliance and any edge switch. Refer to
the hub manufacturer’s documentation for more detailed information.
For instructions to unpack and inspect one or more Ethernet hubs, and to install the hubs in a
desktop or rack-mount configuration, refer to the appropriate Ethernet hub documentation.
