E_Ports enable you to expand the fabric by connecting SANbox2-16 switches with 
other FC-SW-2 compliant switches. SANbox2-16 switches self-discover all 
inter-switch connections. Refer to 
 for more 
information about multiple chassis fabrics. Refer to the SANbox2-8c/16 Switch 
Management User’s Guide 
for more information about defining port types.

Ethernet Port
The Ethernet port shown in 
 is an RJ-45 connector that provides a 
connection to a management workstation through a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet 
cable. A management workstation can be a Windows®, Solaris™, or a Linux®, 
workstation that is used to configure and manage the switch fabric. You can 
manage the switch over an Ethernet connection using SANsurfer Switch 
Manager, the Command Line Interface (CLI), or SNMP. The switch through which 
the fabric is managed is called the fabric management switch.
