USER’S GUIDE

MONITORING THE SWITCH

The InSpeed™ SAN Storage Switch Model 355 provides several options for monitoring the switch status and port information. This section describes how to view switch status, the event log, port information and utilization, and port diagnostics.

Viewing Switch Status

The Web Manager’s home page is the Switch Information page. This page is displayed first when the Web Manager is opened and shows general switch information, including switch status, fan and power supply operational indicators, and port health and utilization.

This page continually refreshes to guarantee that the most current switch status is displayed. To return to this page at any time, click the InSpeed™ Storage Switch menu item.

Switch Information

Current status is provided for the following items.

Item	Status Indicators

Switch Status	OK (green)–the switch unit is operating normally.
	Fault (red)–one or more of the ports has failed, the internal temperature has
	exceeded acceptable levels, or another error has occurred. Errors appear in
	the event log. The switch will continue to operate; however, functionality may
	be impaired depending on the event that triggered the error. Regardless of the
	cause, the switch requires immediate attention.

InSpeed SOC Status	OK (green)–the switch chipset is operating normally.
	Fault (red)–the switch chipset’s selftest has failed.

Enclosure Temperature	OK (green)–the switch temperature is within the normal operating range.
	OverTemp (red)–the enclosure temperature has exceeded the recommended
	operating range.
