Note: The supportShow command has a very long output and time for completion. It may last 20
minutes or longer depending on the size of the SAN.
This file provides a backup of all the information that might be required by Technical Support. The
information can be used after the device is restored to the fabric to verify that no unintentional
changes have occurred to the fabric.

About this task
Complete the following steps to reconnect the device to the network and fabric.
Procedure
1. Connect the switch to the local area network.
a. Insert the appropriate Ethernet cables into the Ethernet port.
b. Connect the other ends to an appropriate Ethernet LAN, if not already connected.
Note: The device can be accessed by remote connection using any of the available management
tools, such as Telnet or Web Tools. Ensure that the device is not modified using other connections
during the rest of this procedure.
2. Reconnect the transceivers and cables to the port.
Note: The ports and cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For a list of
these requirements, refer to the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide.
a. Position one of the transceivers so that the key is oriented correctly to the port and insert the
transceiver into the port until it is firmly seated and the latching mechanism clicks.
b. Select the cable that corresponds to the port and position it so that the key (the ridge on one side
of the cable connector) is aligned with the slot in the transceiver. Insert the cable into the
transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks.
