Cisco Fabric Manager is a responsive,
easy-to-use, Web-based application that simplifies the management
of Cisco MDS 9000 Family switches in storage area networks (SANs)
through an integrated approach to switch and fabric administration.
Cisco Fabric Manager offers storage administrators fabric wide
management capabilities, including discovery, multiple switch
configuration, continuous network monitoring, and troubleshooting.
This powerful approach greatly reduces switch setup times, increases
overall fabric reliability, and provides robust diagnostics
for resolving network problems and configuration inconsistencies. |
