This chapter is divided into three sections providing information on how to manage and monitor the 
switch:
Getting Started – Describes how to configure the network interface, use the Web Manager, and 
perform a basic initial setup of the switch.
Managing the Switch - Describes how to configure the switch and port settings, manage 
firmware versions and configuration files, set switch thresholds, and configure One-Step Zoning, 
Automatic Trunking, and Load Balancing.
Monitoring the Switch – Describes how to view switch information, the event log, port 
information, and port diagnostics.
The switch incorporates two distinct interfaces for managing and monitoring purposes:
The Web Manager interface provides an intuitive graphical user interface that enables users to 
quickly check switch status or modify switch settings in a visual environment.
The Command Line Interface (CLI) provides flexibility and additional functionality for advanced 
users.
Both of these interfaces provide nearly identical functionality; however, for the purposes of this guide, 
the Web Manager interface is used for switch and port configuration unless otherwise noted.
For a list of CLI commands, see 
. For additional 
information on the CLI, see the 
Emulex® or InSpeed™ Storage Switch Products’ CLI Reference Guide.
