SAN Utility
You can use the SAN Utility application to access and configure the switch modules. The SAN Utility can be
installed on a network management workstation, which is either an Intel server compute blade or an external
network management workstation configured with one of the operating systems described in “System
requirements” on page 31.
This chapter lists system requirements and explains how to install the SAN Utility. In addition, this chapter
describes two basic windows you will use to manage your fabrics and switch modules: Topology and
Faceplate.
Important: Before you configure your switch module, be sure that the management modules in your SBCE
unit are properly configured. In addition, to access and manage your switch module from an external
environment, you might need to enable certain features, such as the external ports and external management
over all ports. See the applicable Intel
