Cisco Cisco Fabric Manager Release 4.2 Release Notes

You cannot use Device Manager to configure Ethernet or virtual Ethernet interfaces as SPAN source 
ports or to configure Ethernet interfaces as destination ports. The workaround is to configure SPAN 
using CLI commands.

In the Edit Local Full Zone Database tool, virtual Fibre Channel interfaces must be specified using the 
Switch Port WWN method of adding members to a zone. In the Add Members to Zone dialog box, the 
Switch & Port method and the Domain & Port method are not supported for virtual Fibre Channel 
interfaces. 

This section lists the limitations related to Cisco Fabric Manager managing a Cisco UCS 6100 Series 
Fabric Interconnect.

Before Cisco Fabric Manager can discover a Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnect, you must 
configure the Cisco UCS 6100 Series. For more information, see the 

 section. 

Once the Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnect is configured and Cisco Fabric Manager discovers 
it, the following limitations apply:

Cisco Fabric Manager supports read-only access for a Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnect.

Cisco Fabric Manager or Device Manager cannot automatically register itself as a trap or event 
destination for a Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnect. 

To work around the second of these two limitations, you must manually configure the IP address or port 
of Cisco Fabric Manager or Device Manager as event destinations on the Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric 
Interconnect.

These limitations are due to the fact that the Cisco UCS 6100 Series allows only read-only 
operations via SNMP which is the mechanism that Cisco Fabric Manager uses to discover, 
manage, and configure switches.
