Setting Up Your Switch on page 15 describes how to use the EZSwitchSetup wizard and
EZSwitchSetup switch configuration wizard to set up and configure your switch for the first time. For
additional information about your switch, refer to the hardware reference manual.
Managing Your Switch on page 35 describes how to use the Switch Manager to monitor and manage
your switch.
NOTE
Although your switch may have advanced capabilities, EZSwitchSetup is for a single-switch fabric with
FC ports only. To configure and manage other features on your switch, use the command line interface,
Web Tools, or Brocade Network Advisor.
