1–26 director 2/64 service manual
General Information
The Embedded Web Server interface can be opened from a standard web browser
running Netscape Navigator Version 4.6 (or higher) or Microsoft Internet Explorer
Version 4.0 (or higher). At the browser, enter the IP address of the director as the
Internet uniform resource locator (URL). When prompted at a login screen, enter a
user name and password. When the interface opens, the default display is the View
panel. Service personnel can perform monitoring, configuration, maintenance and
diagnostic functions as follows:
• View panel—Quickly inspect and determine the operational status of the director,
and inspect director properties and operating parameters, FRU properties, and
Fibre Channel port properties.
• Configure panel—Configure or change:
— Director Fibre Channel ports.
— Director identification, date and time, operating parameters, and network
addresses.
— SNMP trap message recipients.
— User passwords.
• Monitor panel—Inspect and monitor:
— Fibre Channel ports and port performance statistics.
— The active zone set.
— Event log entries, and clear the system error LED at the director front bezel.
— Information about attached devices (nodes).
• Operations panel—Perform the following operations and maintenance tasks:
— Enable port beaconing and perform port diagnostics (internal and external
loopback tests).
— Reset Fibre Channel ports.
— Set the director online state.
— Upgrade director firmware.
General tasks performed through the web server interface are very similar in form and
function to tasks performed through the HAFM and Product Manager applications;
therefore, they are not documented in this publication. For task information and
descriptions, open the online user documentation (Help selection) that supports the
interface.
