Fabric Topology View Page
The Fabric Topology View Page, displayed by clicking on the Fabric
Topology button, shows the physical configuration including active domains
and paths, and routing information.
Figure 5–3 and Figure 5–4 show the Fabric Topology View Page. The Fabric
topology shown is viewed from the host domain (or host Switch) which is
initially requested from the web browser. This page is broken up into two
figures and shows the physical configuration including active domains, paths
and routing information. For example, the hop count which is the number of
Switches a data frame from must pass through from source to the destination
(see Table 5–1 for field details).
The first item that appears in this page is a list of active domains (or Switches)
in the Fabric. Following the active domain list is a table unfolding the views of
active paths from the local domain to all remote domains in the Fabric. This
table is grouped by domains. The worldwide name and IP address are included
under each domain. Each active path table displays the local Switches output
port number, destination Switch input port number, the hop count and metrics
(costs) from the local domain to the remote domain and the path flag.
