Optional features 190
The WWNs of devices and/or switches that can currently connect to switch ports are listed in
the Switch Membership List panel.
Figure 89 Switch Binding Membership List dialog box
NOTE: See ” Configuring Switch Binding overview ” on page 188 for information on how
the Switch Membership List is populated with WWNs according to options set in the Switch
Binding State Change dialog box.
2. If nicknames are configured for WWNs through HAFM and you want these to display instead of
WWNs in this dialog box, click the Display Options button at the bottom of the dialog box.
When the Display Options dialog box is displayed, click Nickname, then OK.
3. To prohibit connection to a switch port from a WWN currently in the Membership List, click the
WWN or nickname in the Membership List, then click the Remove button.
The WWN or nickname will move to the Attached Nodes panel. WWNs can only be
removed from the fabric if any of the following circumstances exist:
• The switch is off line.
• Switch Binding is disabled.
• The switch or device with the WWN is not connected to the switch.
• Switch Binding is not enabled for the same port type as enabled for the Connection Policy in
the Switch Binding State Change dialog box. For example, a WWN for a switch attached to
an E_Port can be removed if the Switch Binding Connection Policy was enabled to Restrict
F_Ports.
• The switch or device with the WWN is connected to a port that is blocked.
• The switch or device with the WWN is not currently connected to the switch (detached
node).
4. You can add WWNs to the Switch Membership List (and thereby allowed connection)
when Switch Binding is either enabled or disabled. To allow connection to a switch port from a
WWN in the Attached Node panel:
a. Click the WWN or nickname in the Attached Node panel, and then click Add.
The WWN or nickname will move to the Membership List panel.
