Introducing Web Tools

Web Tools Views

	Web Tools provides access to and information about the fabric
	through a number of separate windows, making it possible to view
	several aspects of the fabric at the same time (Table 1-1).
Table 1-1	Web Tools Views
Initial Display Upon Launching Web Tools:
Fabric View	Displays a control panel that provides access to fabric-wide options,
	a panel for each switch in the fabric, plus a legend that explains the
	meaning of the background colors on the Switch icons. Each panel
	contains an icon that represents the switch itself, in addition to icons
	for Switch Events and the Administrative and Telnet interfaces. The
	background color of the switch icon represents the status of that
	particular switch or Integrated Fabric (as defined by the legend
	provided in the window).
		Switch status is calculated approximately once per second; however the
		initial calculation does not occur until 30-60 seconds after the switch is
		booted. It is calculated from the state of data structures in the switch,
		and stored as the variable switchStatus.
	For all statuses that are based on errors per time interval, any errors
	will cause the status to show faulty until the entire sample interval
	has passed.
Accessible from Fabric View:
Fabric Events	Displays the error log for the fabric, which is the combination of the
View	error logs of all the switches in the fabric. Accessed by clicking on
	the Fabric Events icon on the control panel.
Fabric Topology	Displays physical configuration, including active domains, paths,
View	and routing information. Accessed by clicking on the Fabric
	Topology icon on the control panel.
Name Server	Displays the Name Server Table for the fabric. Use to view
Table View	information about the devices attached to the fabric. Accessed by
	clicking on the Name Server icon on the control panel.
