Fabric OS overview

This chapter describes how to configure your Brocade

 

SAN using the Fabric OS command line 

interface (CLI). Before you can configure a storage area network (SAN), you must power up the

methods to configure a SAN:

•

Web Tools
For Web Tools procedures, see the Web Tools Administrator’s Guide. 

•

Data Center Fabric Manager (DCFM)
For DCFM procedures, see the Data Center Fabric Manager Professional User Manual or Data 
Center Fabric Manager Enterprise User Manual depending on the version you have.

A third-party application using the API
For third-party application procedures, refer to the third-party API documentation.

the specifics for each model. For example, a number of procedures that apply only to variable-port 
devices are found in
