3 Managing fabrics and switches using Web Tools FIGURE 16 Switch Administration window, Switch tab With the exception of switch time, information displayed in the Switch Administration window is not updated automatically by Web Tools. To update the information displayed in the Switch Administration window, see "Refreshing the Switch Administration window" on page 29. ATTENTION Most changes you make in the Switch Administration window are buffered, and are not applied to the switch until you save the changes. If you close the Switch Administration window without saving your changes, your changes are lost. To save the buffered changes you make in the Switch Administration window to the switch, click Apply before closing the module or before switching to another tab. The License tab and the Security Policies tab are exceptions. The changes you make on these tabs are applied immediately and there is no Apply button. Some of the management tasks for the Brocade 48000 and Brocade DCX Director are performed through the High Availability window. This module and the associated tasks are described in "Administering High Availability" on page 41. You can also use telnet commands to perform management tasks. See "Opening the telnet window" on page 29 for information on how to launch a telnet window using Web Tools. The remainder of this section describes basic Switch Administration window procedures that are useful for many switch management operations. 28 Web Tools Administrator's Guide 53-1000606-01
