The Name Server table does not display properly for
a switch running firmware versions earlier than Fabric
OS v2.6.2, v3.1.2, or v4.2.x.
Workaround: If secure mode is enabled, select a
switch running Fabric OS v2.6.2, v3.1.2, or v4.2.x or
later as the primary FCS switch. If secure mode is not
enabled, use a launch switch running Fabric OS
v2.6.2, v3.1.2, or v4.2.x or later to access the Name
Server table on the switch.

Any switches running Fabric OS v2.6.2, v3.1.2, or
v4.2.x or later are not supported through Netscape.
Workaround: Netscape is not a supported browser
for switches running Fabric OS v2.6.2, v3.1.2, or
v4.2.x or later. Use Mozilla browser to manage all of
your switches from a Solaris operating system. See
