Configure the Cisco FC switch basic settings and community string

You must specify the basic settings with the setup command or after issuing the reload command.

1. If the switch does not display the setup questions, configure the basic switch settings: setup
2. Accept the default responses to the setup questions until you are prompted for the SNMP community string.
3. Set the community string to public (all lowercase) to allow access from the ONTAP Health Monitors.

   You can set the community string to a value other than public , but you must configure the ONTAP Health Monitors using the community string you specify.

   The following example shows the commands on FC_switch_A_1:

   FC_switch_A_1# setup
       Configure read-only SNMP community string (yes/no) [n]: y
       SNMP community string : public
       Note:  Please set the SNMP community string to "Public" or another value of your choosing.
       Configure default switchport interface state (shut/noshut) [shut]: noshut
       Configure default switchport port mode F (yes/no) [n]: n
       Configure default zone policy (permit/deny) [deny]: deny
       Enable full zoneset distribution? (yes/no) [n]: yes
   

   The following example shows the commands on FC_switch_B_1:

   FC_switch_B_1# setup
       Configure read-only SNMP community string (yes/no) [n]: y
       SNMP community string : public
       Note:  Please set the SNMP community string to "Public" or another value of your choosing.
       Configure default switchport interface state (shut/noshut) [shut]: noshut
       Configure default switchport port mode F (yes/no) [n]: n
       Configure default zone policy (permit/deny) [deny]: deny
       Enable full zoneset distribution? (yes/no) [n]: yes
