SERIAL PORT

You must use the serial interface to configure the switch management IP address. Refer to the

Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Hardware MDS 9000 Family Configuration Guide for instructions on

how to connect the serial port to a host machine.

INITIAL INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS FOR

SETTING UP FC

The C-series Nexus 5000 Family of switches does not automatically allow FCoE connectivity for

the first-time, out-of-the box power up. For more comprehensive initial setup information,

please refer to the HP C-series Nexus 5000 Converged Network Switch Quick Start

CISCO NEXUS 5000 N-PORT VIRTUALIZATION (NPV)

MODE

N-Port Virtualization (NPV) Mode is a software feature that can be optionally enabled on the C-

series Nexus 5000 Converged Network Switch. Switches operating in NPV mode do not join a

fabric; rather, they pass traffic between NPV core switch links and end devices.

NPV technology addresses the increase in the number of domain IDs needed to deploy a large

number of ports by making the Nexus 5000 behave as a host to the core FC switch. NPV

aggregates multiple locally connected N-ports into one or more external NP link(s), which share

the domain ID of the NPV core switch. NPV also allows multiple devices to attach to the same

port on the NPV core switch, thereby reducing the need for more ports on the core switch. NPV

makes use of N-port ID virtualization (NPIV) to receive multiple FCIDs allocated from the core

switch on the NP port. Refer to the Cisco Nexus 5000 Family Configuration Guide for

instructions on how to configure NPV.
