Launching the EZSwitchSetup Switch Manager

The Login dialog box is displayed. If there are other applications open when EZSwitchSetup 
manager launches, the login dialog may be hidden. To view the login dialog, press Alt+Tab. 

Logging in

When you log in, the EZSwitchSetup Switch Manager interface is launched if the switch is set up 
and configured with EZSwitchSetup. If not, Web Tools is launched. 

Switch Manager supports only single-switch fabrics. If your switch is connected to another switch, 
Switch Manager displays a message and exits. You must disconnect the switch from all other 
switches and relaunch EZSwitchSetup Switch Manager.

1. Type your user name.

2. Type the password.

3. Click OK.

A Switch Manager session is established, and the Switch View is displayed (

).

Switch Manager sessions

A session is defined as the connection between the Switch Manager client and its managed switch. 
A session is established when you log in to a switch through EZSwitchSetup. A session remains in 
effect until one of the following happens:

•

You log out.

•

The session times out due to inactivity.

Logging out

You can end your Switch Manager session either by selecting Log Out in the Miscellaneous area of 
the task panel, or by closing the browser window. All windows belonging to the session are 
invalidated (after a short delay they become greyed out and unusable, but you must close them 
manually), and the session is terminated.
