Selecting WWN and MAC addresses in basic mode

You can select the type of WWN and MAC address in basic mode: original or
additional (hereinafter called WWN identification or MAC identification).
Each WWN identification or MAC identification can be selected for each server
blade from original or additional. When changing WWN and MAC
identification, the values of all Fibre Channel mezzanine cards and LAN
expansion cards are changed.
We recommend selecting the additional for following reason.
• When changing the mezzanine card, the OS and external devices are
affected to minimum due to not changing WWN/MAC address.
