Ethernet Port
The Ethernet port shown in Figure 2-4 is an RJ-45 connector that provides a
connection to a management workstation. A management workstation can be a
Windows, Solaris, or Linux workstation that is used to configure and manage the
switch fabric. You can manage the switch over an Ethernet connection using
SANbox Manager, the Command Line Interface (CLI), or SNMP. The switch
through which the fabric is managed is called the fabric management switch.
The Ethernet port has two LEDs: the Link Status LED (green) and the Activity LED
(yellow). The Link Status LED illuminates continuously when an Ethernet
connection has been established. The Activity LED illuminates when data is being
transmitted or received over the Ethernet connection.
