Switch Management
59021-06 A
SANbox Manager is a workstation-based Java® application that provides a
graphical user interface for fabric management. This application runs on a
Windows®, Solaris™, or Linux® workstation. The management workstation
connects to the fabric directly through one switch’s Ethernet port and provides
in-band management for all other switches in the fabric. Refer to the
SANbox2-8c/16 Switch Management User’s Guide for information about the
SANbox Manager application and its use.
In addition to SANbox Manager, the switch supports the following management
tools:
The command line interface provides monitoring and configuration functions by
which the administrator can manage the fabric and its switches. The CLI is
available over an Ethernet connection or a serial connection. Refer to
Appendix B Command Line Interface
FTP provides the command line interface for exchanging files between the switch
and the management workstation. These files include firmware image files,
configuration files, and log files.
SNMP provides monitoring and trap functions for the fabric. SANbox2 firmware
supports SNMP versions 1 and 2, the Fibre Alliance Management Information
Base (FA-MIB) version 4.0, and the Fabric Element Management Information
Base (FE-MIB) RFC 2837. Traps can be formatted using SNMP version 1 or 2.
