Select a switch from the Fabric Tree.
The selected switch appears in the Switch View.
2.

Refreshing the Switch Admin module
You can refresh the fabric element information displayed at any time using the following procedure. Note
that when you click a different tab in the Switch Admin module, the information in the newly selected tab
is automatically refreshed.
To refresh the fabric information, click the Refresh button in any tabbed page of the Switch Admin module.
Launching the Telnet window
When you launch a telnet window for the Core Switch 2/64 or SAN Director 2/128, it is on a
logical-switch basis. This means that for each logical switch, you must launch a separate telnet window.
Refer to the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 4.x command reference guide for information about the telnet
commands.
NOTE:
Advanced Web Tools does not support telnet on the Mozilla browser. You must use an external
CLI with Mozilla.
Telnet access to a switch and the Telnet button in Advanced Web Tools are both disabled when secure
mode is enabled for a fabric. You must use sectelnet or SSH to access the Fabric OS CLI in a secure fabric.
These capabilities are not accessible from Advanced Web Tools. For more information on sectelnet or
SSH, refer to the HP StorageWorks Secure Fabric OS user guide.
To access telnet through Advanced Web Tools:
1.
Select a switch from the Fabric Tree.
The selected switch appears in the Switch View.
2.
Click the Telnet button
from the Switch View.
The Telnet window opens.
3.
To close the session when you are finished, issue the
exit
command at the telnet prompt.
