Chapter 5. Host configuration 247
The following options are available per port:
Any: Allow local and remote communication between nodes.
Local: Allow only local node communication.
Remote: Allow only remote node communication.
None: Do not allow any node communication.
In all cases, host I/O is still permitted, so the None option can be used to exclusively reserve
a port for host I/O.
A limit of 16 logins exists per node from another node before an error is logged. A
combination of port masking and SAN zoning can help you manage logins and provide
optimum I/O performance with local, remote, and host traffic.
To configure FC ports, complete the following steps:
1. Go to Settings → Network, as shown in Figure 5-51.
