S25P for Storage Environments

Introduction

for use in a storage environment. This document describes:

• Using the console port to enable all ports on the switch for Layer 2 switching

• Verifying that the installed FTOS software is FTOS 7.8.1.0

• Setting up passwords for managing the switch. For details on management, see the Management

chapter in the FTOS Configuration Guide for the S-Series and the Control and Monitoring chapter in

the FTOS Command Reference for the S-Series.
