SANpilot
Diagnostics
If management server or customer-supplied server platform access is
not available, the SANpilot interface provides a GUI accessed
through the Internet (locally or remotely) to manage, monitor, and
isolate problems for a single switch. This interface is available with
switch firmware Version 1.2 (or later) installed, and does not replace
nor offer the full management capability of the EFC Manager and
Sphereon 3032/3232 Element Manager applications.
The SANpilot interface can be opened from a standard web browser
running Netscape Navigator
®
4.6 or higher or Microsoft Internet
Explorer 4.0 or higher. At the browser, enter the IP address of the
switch as the Internet uniform resource locator (URL). When
prompted at a login screen, enter a user name and password. When
the interface opens, the default display is the View panel. Service
personnel can perform the monitoring, configuration, maintenance
and diagnostic functions as follows:

status of the switch, and inspect switch properties and operating
parameters, FRU properties, and Fibre Channel port properties.
