ProSafe Plus Switch Utility Discovering Switches When the utility is launched, it immediately searches the network for ProSafe Plus switches. Local computer firewall applications such as Symantec Endpoint Protection can prevent the utility from communicating with the switches. If the utility is unable to discover your switches and you are using a local firewall, you must turn off the firewall function for discovery to work properly. After a few seconds, the utility discovers and lists all ProSafe Plus switches in your network or in the same broadcast domain. Discovery continues through the network until blocked by a router or firewall. The discovered switches are listed as shown. You can now select a switch to configure or display its status. Note: For you log in to a switch, the computer that you are using must be on the same subnet as the switch. If you are using a standalone computer, you must either change the IP and subnet of your computer or use the IP Setting menu option on the utility to change the switch's IP and subnet.

ProSafe Plus Switch Utility
Discovering Switches
When the utility is launched, it immediately searches the network for ProSafe Plus switches.
Local computer firewall applications such as Symantec Endpoint Protection can prevent the
utility from communicating with the switches. If the utility is unable to discover your switches
and you are using a local firewall, you must turn off the firewall function for discovery to work
properly. After a few seconds, the utility discovers and lists all ProSafe Plus switches in your
network or in the same broadcast domain. Discovery continues through the network until
blocked by a router or firewall.
The discovered switches are listed as shown.
You can now select a switch to configure or display its status.
Note:
For you log in to a switch, the computer that you are using must be
on the same subnet as the switch. If you are using a standalone
computer, you must either change the IP and subnet of your
computer or use the IP Setting
menu option on the utility to change
the switch’s IP and subnet.
