QuickTools Web Applet
To provide basic switch management tools in a graphical user interface and to make switch management less dependent on a particular platform, each switch contains a web applet called QuickTools. QuickTools is designed to provide switch management for fabrics with less than four switches. For larger fabrics, consider the optional management application, Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007.
You run QuickTools by opening the switch IP address with an internet browser. Refer to the SANbox 5000 Series QuickTools Switch Management User Guide. QuickTools provides the following management features:
Faceplate device management
Switch and port statistics
Configuration wizard
Zoning administration
Fabric tree for fabric management
