If you hover the cursor over most components, the system displays tool tip information about the component. In Fabric Tree you can hover over a switch to view its type, Ethernet IP, Fibre Channel IP, and status of the switch. In Switch View, you can hover over a blade to view the blade ID and its status. It is easier to use the top of the blade to display the tool tip so that you do not inadvertently display the port tool tips. Firmware versions and IP addressing are displayed for CP blades. When you hover over a port, you can view the port number, port index, port type (E, F, L, or U_Port), port status (online or offline), and port state (in-sync, no_sync, no light, or no module). If you rightclick the port, the system displays the tool tip information and the port world-wide name.
