A limited set of features is accessible using Web Tools without a license, and is available free of
charge. Additional switch management features are accessible using Web Tools with the Enhanced
Group Management (EGM) license. Refer to
“Web Tools, the EGM license, and Brocade Network
Advisor” for more information.
A new view has been added to Web Tools for the Brocade 8000 switch and FCOE10-24 DCX blade,
and new tabs have been added to the Switch Administration window and the Port Admin tab to
support FCoE interfaces and trunks.
Web Tools, the EGM license, and Brocade Network Advisor
Beginning with Fabric OS version 6.1.1, Web Tools functionality is tiered and integrated with
Brocade Network Advisor. If you are migrating from a Web Tools release prior to Fabric OS version
6.1.1, this may impact how you use Web Tools.
A Web Tools license is not required, and a basic version of Web Tools is available for free. Additional
functionality may be added by obtaining the Enhanced Group Management (EGM) license.
The EGM license is required only for 8 Gbps platforms, such as the:
• Brocade Encryption Switch
• Brocade 300, 5300, and 5100 switches
• Brocade VA-40FC
• Brocade 8000
• Brocade 7800
For non-8 Gbps platforms, all functionalities are available without the EGM license.
Port information that is unique to FCoE
The General tab in the Port Admin tab displays several parameters that are unique to DCB/DCE
interfaces:
• Interface Mode—The interface mode vales are either None or L2 mode.
• VLAN ID—The VLANs that carry traffic on the links are attached to this port.
• LAG—The ID of the Link Aggregation Group (LAG), with which this port is associated. If no ID is
specified, the port is not associated with any LAG.
• L2 Mode—The values are Access, Trunk, or Converged. Access mode allows only one VLAN
association, and allows only untagged frames. Trunk mode allows more than one VLAN
association, and allows tagged frames. Converged mode interface can be native (untagged or
access) in one VLAN and it could be non-native (trunk or tagged) type in more than one VLAN.
• DCB Map—The name of a DCB map that was created and associated with the port.
• Traffic Class Map—The name of a traffic class map that was created and associated with the
port.
• LLDP Status—Indicates whether LLDP is active or inactive.
• LLDP Profile—The name of an LLDP profile that was created and associated with the port.
• FCoE Priority Bits—Each bit represents a user priority that is associated with FCoE traffic.
• Default CoS—The default Class of Service.
