C-FCSWAPI Bridge Agent overview
The C-based Fibre Channel switch application programming interface
(C-FCSWAPI) is a library of switch-management functions callable from an
application program written in C or C++. C-FCSWAPI enables software to
communicate with switches, instead of requiring a user to interact manually with a
graphical user interface (GUI) or command line interface (CLI).
C-FCSWAPI proxy connections route data from the C-FCSWAPI library to the
C-FCSWAPI Bridge Agent and then from the C-FCSWAPI Bridge Agent to
HAFM. To support this connection type, the C-FCSWAPI Bridge Agent must be
installed on the HAFM appliance where HAFM is installed.
