Virtual Connect server profiles 180
Column name Description
Profile
Profile Name Descriptive name for the server profile. The text can be up to 64
alpha-numeric characters, dashes, and underscores. Do not use spaces.
Network Access Group Associates a network access group to the profile. The default network access
group is "default."
Advanced Profile Settings (on
page
177 )
Select to show if server factory defaults are being used for Ethernet MAC
Addresses, Fibre Channel WWNs, and Serial Numbers.
Ethernet Adapter Connections
Port Relative order of the Ethernet port on the server receiving the profile. System
board NICs are first in the order, followed by NICs on mezzanine cards. See
"iSCSI and FCoE port assignments (on page 169 )" and "Bandwidth
assignment (on page 171 )."
Network Name Unassigned, name of the network, or "Multiple Networks" associated with
this port
Status Displays the current linked status of the selected port
Port Speed Type The requested operational speed for the server port. Valid values include
"Auto", "Preferred", "Custom", and "Disabled". The default value is
"Preferred".
Auto—The maximum port speed is determined by the maximum configured
speed for the network.
Preferred—The speed of the network is the same as the preferred speed of the
network to which the connection is associated. If no preferred speed is
configured for a network, it behaves like "Auto".
Custom—You can configure any speed from 100Mb to the maximum
configured speed for the network in 100-Mb increments.*
For all speed types the maximum port speed is determined by the maximum
configured speed for the network. If the speed type is "Auto," VCM
determines the appropriate port speed based on the available bandwidth for
the port. The configured port speed behaves like Auto (default). If the speed
type is "Disabled," bandwidth is not allocated. You can only set the minimum
port speed here. The maximum is set in the port link speed.
PXE Shows whether PXE is enabled, disabled, or USE BIOS is selected on that
port. Only one port can have PXE enabled.
Multicast Filter Displays the name of the multicast filter or filter set associated with this
connection
MAC
Type of MAC address assignment configured for the Virtual Connect domain
Action Perform delete operations
iSCSI HBA Connections
Port Relative order of the port on the server receiving the profile
Network Name
Unassigned or name of the network associated with this port
Status Displays the current linked status of the selected port
Port Speed Type The requested operational speed for the server port. Valid values include
"Auto", "Preferred", "Custom", and "Disabled". The default value is
"Preferred".
Auto—The maximum port speed is determined by the maximum configured
speed for the network.
Preferred—The speed of the network is the same as the preferred speed of the
network to which the connection is associated. If no preferred speed is
configured for a network, it behaves like "Auto".
Custom—You can configure any speed from 100Mb to the maximum
