Change the location of the browser used to view the online help. The
Browser Location field is not supported/displayed for Mac OS X platforms.
Enable (default) or disable the view file auto save and load feature. Refer to
“Exiting SANsurfer Switch Manager” on page 2-13 for more information on
the default fabric view file.
Enable (default) or disable the use of the Initial Start Dialog at the beginning
of a SANsurfer Switch Manager session. Refer to “Starting SANsurfer
Switch Manager” on page 2-10 for information about the Initial Start Dialog.
After a default fabric view file is created, this setting has no effect.

dialog upon login when establishing a nonsecure connection.
Enable (default) or disable the Event Browser. Refer to “Displaying the
Event Browser” on page 3-11. If the Event Browser is enabled using the
Preferences dialog as shown in Figure 2-5, the next time SANsurfer Switch

disabled when SANsurfer Switch Manager is started and later enabled, only
those events from the time the Event Browser was enabled and forward will
be displayed.
Choose the default port view when opening the faceplate display. You can

operational state, or port transceiver media. Regardless of the default port
view you choose, you can change the port view in the faceplate display by
opening the View menu and selecting a different port view option. Refer to
