HQT-4180 · Question #15
Your customer wants to connect multiple servers to a new port on a VSP G700. The correct topology has already been set for the port. What should you do next?
The correct answer is D. Scan for all WWNs. Scanning for WWNs (D) is the correct next step because you must first discover the World Wide Names of the connected host bus adapters (HBAs) before you can do anything meaningful with those servers on the port - without knowing the WWNs, you have nothing to assign or secure…

Explanation
Scanning for WWNs (D) is the correct next step because you must first discover the World Wide Names of the connected host bus adapters (HBAs) before you can do anything meaningful with those servers on the port - without knowing the WWNs, you have nothing to assign or secure.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- C (Create a Host Group) is a later step - you need the WWNs in hand before you can populate a host group with the correct hosts.
- B (Enable Host Group security) is a configuration option applied after a host group already exists with known members.
- A (Enable Port Security) is also a downstream action; securing access is meaningless until you've identified what you're granting access to.
Memory tip: Think "discover → organize → secure." Topology is set → Scan WWNs → Create Host Groups → Apply Security. You can't organize or secure what you haven't yet discovered.
