1.0 ATTO FibreBridge Provides Storage Options
The ATTO FibreBridge™ family of products provides Fibre Channel-to-SCSI bridges as embeddable boards,
stand alone enclosures that can be fitted for rack mount integration, or desktop units.
Fibre Channel is a serial communications technology
designed to transfer large amounts of data between a
variety of hardware systems over long distances. It is
a key technology for applications that require shared,
high bandwidth access to storage.
Fibre Channel provides a logical point-to-point serial
channel for the transfer of data between a buffer at a
source device and a buffer at a destination device. It
moves buffer contents from one port to another,
without regard to the format or meaning of the data, so
different upper level protocols are able to run over
Fibre Channel hardware.
ATTO FibreBridge 2370E features, benefits
All ATTO FibreBridge models can be used in a SAN
(Storage Area Network) to connect a variety of Fibre
Channel and SCSI devices. A SAN is a shared storage
architecture connecting computers and storage
devices for online data access. Each connected
system can directly access any attached storage
device.
The ATTO FibreBridge provides the interface between
SCSI and Fibre Channel resources in SANs. Possible
configurations depend upon your current hardware.

3.1 Map Devices
After getting an IP address and entering ATTO ExpressNAV, you must map devices so that the FibreBridge can
access the devices in your network.
The ATTO FibreBridge allows parallel SCSI devices to
participate in a Fibre Channel arbitrated loop or on a
fabric. Fibre Channel and parallel SCSI use different
models to address devices. The FibreBridge
translates between these addressing models.
FibreBridge mapping
On a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop, the FibreBridge
appears at a single Arbitrated Loop Port Address
(AL_PA). Each device on an arbitrated loop is
assigned a unique AL_PA during loop initialization.
The FibreBridge supports both modes of AL_PA
assignment, commonly referred to as hard and soft
addressing.
WWN:
addressing, each Fibre Channel device is assigned a
unique World Wide Name (WWN). The 64-bit WWN
has the following format:
Soft addressing
to assign the FibreBridge a unique address during the
loop initialization process. The address assigned
cannot be determined before loop initialization. Adding
new devices to an arbitrated loop may change the
address assigned to the FibreBridge.
Hard addressing
be assigned to the FibreBridge. The FibreBridge tries
to acquire the desired hard address. If another device
has already been assigned the specified address, the
FibreBridge acquires a currently unassigned address.

SCSI device mapping
SCSI devices connected to the FibreBridge are
viewed as Fibre Channel LUNs to the host computer.
SCSI devices must be on the same addressing level
as the SCSI portion of the FibreBridge. The
FibreBridge SCSI ID must be set to a different SCSI ID
from the other devices on the same bus.
The ATTO ExpressNAV interface graphically shows
you current mapping and the SCSI devices available
for mapping. Refer to Interface options
Use the ExpressNAV interface to map devices
automatically or to customize mapping. You may
modify the mapping as needed to make a device
inaccessible to a host or to replace a non-functioning
mapped unit.
Note
It is not necessary to set all mapped devices
online: SCSI commands sent to offline devices
are rejected.

Multiple Node addressing (FB2400 only)
The FibreBridge has a unique Port name for each
Fibre Channel port. By default, each Fibre Channel
port also has a separate unique Node name: the host
computer perceives the FibreBridge as two separate
entities, allowing mapping of a different set of logical
units to each FC port.
You may use a combination of the Command Line
Interface and ExpressNAV to change the default
setting to create a single Node name for the
FibreBridge and map devices to that node.

3.2 Monitor, Manage Remotely
The Ethernet port provides monitoring and management using the ExpressNAV interface.
Remote system monitoring may be set up through
Remote Management page of the ExpressNAV
interface (see Exhibit 3.0-3) using the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) or Email.
Various types of problems may create a notification:
• Device errors such as medium error, aborted
command and hard error
• Device transitions from online to offline
• Critical and warning temperature conditions
• Critical and warning voltage conditions
Messages may state that a device is not working, a
medium has an error, or a command has been
stopped.
Exhibit 3.0-3 The Remote Management page in the ExpressNAV interface.
You may designate which warning level a recipient
receives. For example, a recipient with a critical
severity level only receives critical messages and not
warning or informational messages.
In both monitoring systems, you select the warning
levels for each recipient:
• All: all warnings, critical events and
informational messages
Warning: events which are either warnings or
•
critical events
Critical: only events which are critical
•
•
None: no messages are sent

SNMP-based monitoring
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
facilitates the exchange of management information
between network devices.
An agent resides in the FibreBridge which takes
information from the FibreBridge and translates it into
a form compatible with SNMP. If certain conditions
arise, the agent sends asynchronous notifications
(traps) to a client.
Note
Consult your network administrator for further
assistance with SNMP.

Email notification allows the FibreBridge to send an
Email message to you, a network administrator or
other users when certain events occur. Serious error
messages are sent immediately, while messages for
less serious errors are sent every 15 minutes.
You may send Emails to up to five Email addresses
and designate which conditions prompt each Email
notification.
When an event occurs that has been designated as
requiring Email notification, the FibreBridge sends the
message; it cannot respond to a rejection by a server
for an invalid address. Ensure all Email addresses
typed in are valid.
Each Email is time stamped when it leaves as part of

Appendix A Cabling
ATTO FibreBridge SCSI ports connect SCSI storage devices into the Fibre Channel Storage Area Network
(SAN). Use an Ethernet connection to use the ATTO ExpressNAV interface.
Make sure all cables are anchored securely at both
ends with the proper connectors.
SCSI port connections
The FibreBridge supports a wide variety of SCSI
storage devices.
Each SCSI port is totally independent from the other
SCSI port. Each bus may support up to 15 devices and
each SCSI bus auto-negotiates the appropriate sync
rates with the connected devices. If slower devices are
mixed with faster devices, the bus communicates at
the rate of the slowest device.
Connect slower devices to one SCSI port and faster
devices to the other port.
Connect a SCSI connector from the SCSI device to a
SCSI port on the FibreBridge.
Check the type of cable, cable length limit and number
of devices recommended for each port.
Keep cable lengths as short as possible to ensure the
highest signal quality and performance. These cable
lengths include the wiring inside the devices.

Serial port connections
The ATTO FibreBridge supports remote service
operations over the RS-232 serial port using standard
terminal emulation software available with most
systems.
Connect a DB-9 crossover serial cable (null modem)
between the ATTO FibreBridge serial port and one of
the computer's serial COM ports.
A gender changer or DB-9 to DB-25 converter may be
needed depending on the cables being used.
Ethernet connections
The 10/100 BaseT Ethernet port provides remote
monitoring and management using the ATTO
ExpressNAV interface.
When you connect an Ethernet cable between the
FibreBridge and a 10/100Base-T connection, you may
need a crossover cable connecting directly to a
computer. The ATTO FibreBridge auto detects the
Ethernet speed by default.

Appendix B CLI provides ASCII-based Interface
The command line interface (CLI) provides access to the ATTO FibreBridge Services through a set of ASCII
commands. CLI commands may be entered while in CLI mode.
FibreBridge Services provide configuration and
monitoring for the FibreBridge. The command line
interface (CLI) is a set of ASCII-based commands
which perform these tasks. CLI commands may be
entered while in CLI mode.
• CLI commands are context sensitive and
generally follow a standard format:
[Get|Set] Command [Parameter1|Parameter2]
followed by the return or enter key
• CLI commands are case insensitive: you may
type all upper or all lower case or a mixture.
Upper and lower case in this manual and the
help screen are for clarification only.
• Commands generally have three types of
operation: get, set and immediate.
• The get form returns the value of a parameter or
setting and is an informational command.
• Responses to get commands are followed by
Ready.
Exhibit 0.0-1 Symbols, typefaces and abbreviations used to indicate functions and elements of the
command line interface used in this manual.
Command conventions
• The set form is an action that changes the value
of a parameter or configuration setting. It may
require a
restart of the system before it is implemented.
The restart can be accomplished as part of the
SaveConfiguration command or by using a
