Fabric and Switch Management
Fabric OS Command Line Interface
The Fabric OS command line interface (CLI) accessed through telnet
or serial console provides the user with the full range of management
capability on a DS-32B2 and ED-12000B switch. The Fabric OS CLI
enables an administrator to monitor and manage entire fabrics,
individual switches, and ports from a standard workstation. The
entire suite of Fabric OS features and capabilities is available across
an entire fabric, from a single access point.
Access is controlled by a switch-level password for each user level
(admin, user). The commands available through the CLI are based on
the users login level, and the license keys used to unlock certain
features.
Generally speaking, all configuration and management tasks are
available using the admin or user level ID. This manual lists all the
commands available to the User and Admin level login IDs.
Fabric OS CLI is the complete fabric management tool for SANs, and
provides the following advantages to administrators:
Access to the full range of Fabric OS features, based on which
license keys you purchase.
A full set of tools to assist administrators with the configuration,
monitoring, dynamic provisioning, and daily management of
every aspect of Enterprise Storage Networks.
