Management Console link to GbE2c

Ed Cox — Tue, 08 May 2007 15:31:58 GMT

Hi everyone,
Just curious if anyone knows why I can get a Management Console hyperlink to my Brocade SAN switch, but the Information display for the GbE2c only displays the link for port mapping and not a link to the Management Console. The GbE2c has an ip address I can hit thru a web page outside of the OA interface.
Thanks!
Ed

Ed:

2 possibilities:

1) If you have an IP address on Interface 256 in the GBE2c, you must at least have firmware and boot version 1.1.0 or greater on the GBE2c switch for its port 19 (interface to the OA) to be active. Here are the links:
firmware:
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/revision/9527.html

boot:
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/revision/9528.html

OR

2) You have an IP address configured on an interface other than 256 in the GBE2c.

- In this case the OA will not see that interface. This is by design.

Hi

I have two GbE2c Switches with Firmware 1.0 and would like to upgrade to Version 2.0.6.
But i can't find Firmware 1.1 on the HP WEB site.
Where can i get Firmware 1.1?
