2.0 Manage Sonnet Devices, Configurations
You may save the current configuration of your Fusion
RX1600Fibre, use a configuration from another RX1600Fibre, or
change the configurations of other RX1600Fibre storage systems
using the Sonnet Web Management Tool.
If you have other RX1600Fibre storage systems in the same
broadcast domain with no routers between them, and any
switches between this RX1600Fibre and the other devices
are configured to forward UDP broadcast messages, you may
physically identify these devices and manage them from within
the browser you are currently using.
You may also save the configuration of the RX1600Fibre
you are currently using, or restore it from a previously-saved
configuration, or import a configuration from another
RX1600Fibre. It is best practice to give your current RX1600Fibre
a recognizable name so that you can distinguish it more easily
from among other RX1600Fibre storage systems.
