Viewing a Physical Connection map
SAN Connection Manager provides a graphical representation of physical connections among the storage
subsystems, switches, and HBAs within the SAN. This graphical representation is the Physical Connection
map shown in the content pane ( Figure 22 ).
Description of a Physical Connection map
The Physical Connection map ( Figure 22 ) uses blue lines to designate the physical connections between
devices in the SAN.
Figure 22 Physical Connection map
The map shows the following components:
• Switches:
• A black line between switches indicates an ISL.
• A grayed-out switch on the map indicates a remote fabric (Brocade or Cisco fabric that may contain
multiple switches) connected by means of an active TR_Port.
