Management features

SAN Switches use built-in management tools to help you monitor fabric topology, check port

status, and debug the switch. Table 10 lists the management applications available.

NOTE: When running IP over Fibre Channel, these management tools must be supported by

both HBA and HBA drivers. For a list of supported HBAs, refer to the

HP StorageWorks SAN design guide
