Analyzing End-to-End Connectivity You can use the End to End Connectivity option to determine connectivity and routes among devices with the switch fabric. The connectivity tool checks to see that every pair of end devices can talk to each other, using a Ping test and by determining if they are in the same VSAN or in the same active zone. This option uses versions of the ping and traceroute commands modified for Fibre Channel networks. The ping and redundancy tests are now mutually exclusive, you cannot run both at the same time. To use the End to End Connectivity option in Fabric Manager to determine connectivity and routes, follow these steps: Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Choose Tools > Connectivity > End to End Connectivity. You see the End to End Connectivity Analysis dialog box. Select the VSAN whose connectivity will be verified from the VSAN drop-down list. Select whether to perform the analysis for all active zones or for the default zone. Click Ensure that members can communicate to perform a Fibre Channel ping between the selected endpoints. Identify the number of packets, the size of each packet, and the time out in milliseconds. Analyze the redundant paths between endpoints by checking the Ensure that redundant paths exist between members check box.
