Connect the Workstation to the Switch
You can manage the switch using Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007, the QuickTools
web applet, or the command line interface. Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 and
QuickTools require a connection to the CPU0 Ethernet port. The command line
interface can use an Ethernet connection or a serial connection to the primary
CPU blade. Choose a switch management method, then connect the
management workstation to the switch in one of the following ways:
Ethernet connection from the management workstation to the switch RJ-45
Ethernet connector through an Ethernet switch or a hub. You can use a
10/100 Base-T straight or cross-over cable. The default active Ethernet port
is located on the CPU0 CPU blade on the back of the switch.
Serial port connection from the management workstation to the switch RJ-45
serial port connector on the CPU0 blade. This requires the RS-232/RJ-45
console adapter provided with the switch and a 10/100 Base-T straight
cable.

Obtain the Network Configuration
Obtain the IP address and subnet mask from your network administrator. The
