Telnet Interface
You can do the following using a telnet interface:
• Query fabric and switch events through the telnet command
fwShow
.
• Query and modify threshold and alarm configurations. Use the the telnet command
fwConfigure
to view the default and customized settings.
• Upload and download the configuration file through the commands
configUpload
and
configDownload
.
SNMP-Based Enterprise Managers
The Fabric Watch configuration information is stored as MIB variables, allowing you to do the
following:
• Query the MIB variable for individual fabric and switch elements.
• Query and modify threshold and alarm configurations.
• Receive generated SNMP traps when threshold conditions are met.
Configuration File
You can view and modify the threshold and alarm configurations by uploading the configuration
file from the switch to the host, editing it in a text editor, then downloading the modified file back
to the switch. You can then ensure a uniform configuration throughout the fabric by distributing the
configuration file to all the switches in the fabric.
The configuration file can be uploaded and downloaded through either Brocade Web Tools
TM
(the
Config Admin tab in the Switch Admin window) or the telnet commands
configUpload
and
configDownload
. After downloading the file back to the switch, you must either reboot the
switch or use the telnet command
fwConfigReload
to reload the configuration file.
Profiles
Each Fabric Watch profile contains a unique threshold and alarm settings. Current profiles are
divided into:
•
debug
•
workgroup errlog
•
workgroup snmp
•
enterprise errlog
•
enterprise snmp
In addition, a Fabric Watch profile specific to your environment can be downloaded to the switch to
customize the configuration.
