Fabric Topology View Page
Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3 show the Fabric Topology View page. The Fabric topology shown is
viewed from the host domain (or host switch) which is initially requested from the web
browser. This page is broken up into two figures and shows the physical configuration
including active domains, paths and routing information. For example, this page shows the hop
count. Hop count is the number of switches that handle a data frame from origination to the
destination.
The first item that appears in this page is a list of active domains (or switches) in the Fabric.
Following the active domain list is a table unfolding the views of active paths from the host
domain to all remote domains in the Fabric. This table is grouped by domains. The worldwide
name and IP address are included under each domain. Each active path table displays host
switch output port number, host switch input port number, the hop count and metrics (costs)
from the host domain to the remote domain and the path flag.
