Retrieving a specific FC fabric
In the previous section, you retrieved a list of all FC fabrics. Every fabric in the list has a unique
identifier specified by the

parameter. You can use it to retrieve information about a specific
fabric.
To retrieve information about the fabric with the 10:00:00:05:1E:A7:1F:EB key, complete the
following steps.
1. Enter the following URI in the URL field:
http:///rest/resourcegroups/All/fcfabrics/10:00:00:05:1E:A7:1F:EB
2. Define the following HTTP request headers.
3. Set the HTTP request method to GET.
4. Send the request.
