8 Using the Fabric View The following information about the Fabric View is available: • Overview of the Fabric View 8-1 • Fabric View Elements 8-1 Overview of the Fabric View The Fabric View is the first screen displayed after logging into the EFCM Basic interface. The Fabric View page (Figure 8-1, Fabric View with 10 Domain IDs, on page 8-2) is presented from the perspective of the IP Address entered in by the user during system login. This page serves as a view of the current topology of the fabric and as a gateway for accessing switches in the fabric. Fabric View Elements The Fabric View interacts with products in the fabric (other than the one you are logged into) using a set of in-band requests to the product. The in-band communication originates from the current switch (the product that you logged into). The current switch is identified by the IP address listed in the Topology from field. The point-of-view of the information shown in this page is that of the current switch. The Fabric View shows devices in the fabric in two locations, the Fabric Tree on the left side of the page and the Product Boxes on the right side of the page. Using the Fabric View 8-1
