Next to each fabric tree entry is a small icon that uses color to indicate operational status:
•
A green icon indicates normal operation.
•
A yellow icon indicates that a switch is operational, but may require attention to maintain maximum
performance.
•
A red icon indicates a potential failure or non-operational state, as when the switch is offline.
•
A blue icon indicates that a switch is unknown, unreachable, or unmanageable.
If the status of a fabric is not normal, the fabric icon in the fabric tree indicates the reason for the abnormal
status. The same message is provided when you rest the pointer on the fabric icon in the fabric tree.
The small lock icon next to the fabric icon in the fabric tree indicates a secure fabric connection using
Secure Socket Layer (SSL). The Security menu is available only for the entry switch (out-of-band switch) on a
secure fabric. Select Switch > Services to enable the SSL service for that switch. You must then close the
fabric and re-establish a secure connection to the fabric using SSL.
Graphic window
The graphic window shows fabric, switch, and port information in the forms of the fabric topology display,
switch faceplate display (
