The Switch supports switch management primarily through the following tools. Refer to the Switch Management Manual for information about these tools.

•The SANsurfer Switch management application

•Telnet

•A Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)

•A built-in SNMP Agent

SANsurfer Switch Management Application

SANsurfer is the preferred tool for complete fabric monitoring and management offering the following capabilities:

•Establish and conﬁgure the switch management interface

•Display switch hardware, ﬁrmware, and connection information

•Display port addresses and performance statistics

•Conﬁgure and tune ports

•Record performance statistics

•Deﬁne hard, Name Server, broadcast, and segmented loop zones

•Conﬁgure, archive, and restore chassis parameters

•Conﬁgure loop devices and display status information

•Read and write chassis memory

•Update ﬂash memory

Telnet

The following functions are available in Telnet:

•Read version and chassis conﬁguration information

•Read the FC Port Control Block (port conﬁguration) information

•Read SNMP Management Information Base (MIB) data

•Set or read switch chassis conﬁguration parameters

•Read chassis status information and the operational chassis mode

•Read the states, port types, and login status of all the ports on the switch

•List all AL_PAs on the selected arbitrated loop

•Read any arbitrated loop on a port

•Reset the switch
