HP 316095-B21 - StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/24 Release Note
Important information
This section lists information that you should consider before using Directors or Edge Switches running
09.02.00 firmware.
Default zone is disabled by default
The default zone on the Director and Edge Switches disabled by default. Zoning must be configured in
order for devices connected to the Director or Edge Switch to communicate.
Some IP addresses must be avoided
If you use HAFM to manage Edge Switches and Directors, do not use IP addresses in the range
192.168.0.0 through 192.168.0.255
This subnet is used internally by the HAFM Appliance. Using an IP address in this range causes the Call
Home feature to function incorrectly.
Using HAFM Basic
HAFM Basic requires using Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6 or Netscape version 7 in order to
operate correctly.

Using the same firmware level
All Edge Switches and Directors in the same fabric should have the same firmware level installed—whether
1Gb/s, 2Gb/s, or 4Gb/s capable—to ensure that this firmware operates correctly.
Firmware 09.02.00 is common for all M-Series fabric products, except the McDATA 4Gb SAN Switch for
HP p-Class BladeSystem, which has a separate firmware.
