Step 6. Install the SANsurfer Switch Manager Application
The SANsurfer Switch Manager application includes the Configuration Wizard. This wizard auto-detects and configures
the switch based on selected options and recommended settings. To install the SANsurfer Switch Manager application
on a Windows workstation/server, perform the following steps:
1. Insert the supplied CD into the CD ROM drive of the Windows workstation/server.
2. From the tabs at the top of the product introduction screen, click SANsurfer Switch Manager.
3. Locate your platform in the table and click Install.
4. Double click on the Windows_5.0x.xx.exe file to begin installation.
5. If the product introduction screen does not open, open the CD with Windows Explorer and run the
installation program with the following path:
Switch_Manager\Windows_5.0x.xx.exe
Step 7. Obtain Network Configuration
Obtain the IP address and subnet mask from your network administrator.
Step 8. Run the Configuration Wizard
Double-click the SANsurfer Switch Manager shortcut, or select SANsurfer Switch Manager from Start menu,
depending on how you installed SANsurfer Switch Manager.
Connect the switch and the workstation using an Ethernet crossover cable, switch, or hub.
The Configuration Wizard tool will auto-detect and configure the switch based on selected options and
recommended settings. Follow the instructions to set network parameters and the password.
NOTE: If you are using an Ethernet switch and the auto-connect process fails due to a time out,
try a direct connection from your workstation to the switch using an Ethernet cross-over cable.
The Configuration Wizard may present several zoning options that show the corresponding storage and host
connections. Choose the zoning option that best suits your Storage Area Network.
Step 9. Connect Devices and Switches
Connect fibre optic cables between the installed SFP transceivers and their corresponding devices. Each port
auto-negotiates the proper port type with the connected device or switch.
