Security Consistency Checklist

The Security Consistency Checklist dialog enables you to compare security-related features on switches to check for inconsistencies. Any changes must be made through the appropriate dialog, such as Network Properties dialog, Switch Properties dialog, or SNMP Properties dialog.

Tracking Fabric Firmware and Software Versions

The Fabric Tracker option enables you to generate a snapshot or baseline of current system version information, which can be viewed, analyzed and compared to other snapshot files, and exported to a file. Information includes date and time, SANsurfer Switch Manager version, switch active firmware version, device hardware, drivers, and firmware version from FDMI.

The Snapshot Analyzer option enables you to:

Compare two snapshots

Detect mismatches of firmware and driver versions

Detect devices that have been moved, added to or removed from the fabric.

Saving a Version Snapshot

To save the current snapshot to an XML file, open the Fabric menu, select Fabric Tracker, and select Save Snapshot. To view and analyze system version information, open the Fabric menu, select Fabric Tracker, and select Analyze Snapshots. The Fabric Version Snapshot Analysis dialog, shown in Figure 3-1, opens with the Summary, Differences and Reports tab pages. Click the Browse buttons to open and view the snapshot files in the corresponding tab pages. Click the Close button to exit the Fabric Version Snapshot Analysis dialog. The color key below the scrollable area defines the meanings of the colors used.
