Chapter 5 Fabric Manager Client Setting Fabric Manager Preferences Send documentation comments to [email protected] Note If you browse for a path or enter a path and you have a space in the pathname (for example, c:\program files\telnet.exe), then the path will not work. To get the path to work, you must manually place quotes around it (for example, "c:\program files\telnet.exe"). • Use Secure Shell instead of Telnet-Specifies whether to use SSH or Telnet when using the CLI to communicate with the switch. If enabled, you must specify the path to your SSH application. The default setting is disabled. • Confirm Deletion-Displays a confirmation pop-up window when you delete part of your configuration using Fabric Manager. The default setting is enabled (checked). • Export Tables with Format-Specifies the type of file that is created when you export a table using Device Manager. The options are tab-delimited or XML. The default setting is Tab-Delimited. • Show CFS Warnings-Shows warning messages if CFS is not enabled on all switches for a selected feature.
