Figure 25 shows the various methods and communication paths for accessing
switch management information.
Hardware setup for switch management
To enable remote connection to the switch, the switch must have a valid IP
address. Two IP addresses can be set; one for the external out-of-band Ethernet
port and one for in-band fibre channel network access.
