Selections from the Main Menu open new menus. For example, if you enter
option 1 (General Information) on the main interactive menu, the system shows
a new menu, the General Information Menu. From this menu you have several
choices including 1: Host Information, 2: Host Topology, and so forth. On every
menu you can type the number for Return to Previous Menu and move to the
next higher level (parent) menu.
In the remainder of this chapter, you will see a “breadcrumbs” line following most
subsection headings. The breadcrumbs line shows you how to access that option;
that is, it shows the hierarchical path from the top level to the command under
discussion. For example, to reach the Save to Txt File options from the main
SANsurfer FC/CNA HBA CLI menu, you would select option 1 to open the
General Information menu, 2 to open the Host Topology menu, and then 2
again to see the Save As Txt File options. The following shows the breadcrumbs
example:

running with a driver that supports NPIV (N_Port ID virtualization).
