Configuring port threshold alarms
IMPORTANT:
Port threshold alarms can be managed only with Element Manager, which requires the
Element Manager PFE key, and the CLI. See ”
” on page 82 for
more information about installing a PFE key. To obtain the McDATA 4Gb SAN Switch serial number and
PFE key, follow the step-by-step instructions on the firmware feature entitlement request certificate for the PFE
key. You can obtain a PFE key from the web at:
