SANbox Manager will report any and all FDMI information reported by the entry
switch, if FDMI is enabled on the entry switch. To view FDMI data, FDMI must be

report FDMI data. To enable FDMI, select a switch in the topology display or open
the faceplate display, open the Switch menu, select Switch Properties, and click
the Enable FDMI radio button in the Switch Properties dialog.
The Detailed FDMI Display dialog is opened after clicking the Information (i)
button in the Details column of the FDMI data window, and lists additional FDMI
information for the device. To open the FDMI data window, open the topology
