General description
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
®
or
a Linux
®
workstation that is used to configure and manage the switch. You can manage the switch over an
Ethernet connection using the McDATA Web Server, CLI, or SNMP.
The Ethernet port has two LEDs: the Status LED (green) and the Activity LED (green). The Link Status LED
illuminates continuously when an Ethernet connection has been established. The Activity LED illuminates
when data is being transmitted or received over the Ethernet connection.

Command Line Interface, page 17
•
Simple Network Management Protocol
•
McDATA Web Server
McDATA Web Server is a graphical user interface (GUI) that provides both fabric and switch module
management functions. Because McDATA Web Server resides in the switch firmware, no installation is
needed. You can run one instance of the McDATA Web Server at a time by opening the switch IP address
with an internet browser. McDATA Web Server is best used to manage a single fabric consisting only of
McDATA 4Gb SAN switches. See ”
” on page 27 for workstation
requirements.
