Fabric and switch management overview
Most of the management tasks described in this chapter are accessed through the Switch
Administration window. Information in the Switch Administration window is retrieved from the
selected switch, as shown in the following figure.
If the switch is not a member of the selected Admin Domain, most tabs in the Switch Administration
window display in read-only mode, regardless of your permission level. The User tab is editable
because most of its information does not require switch membership in the current Admin Domain.
