Verifying fabric connectivity
The MP Router forms a fabric when connected to a supported Fabric OS-based switch or another MP
Router (if the ports on either side are enabled as E_Ports). See the installation guide for your switch for
specific interswitch link (ISL) connection and cable management information.
1. Access the Switch Manager.
2. Click Fabric in the navigation bar.
The Fabric page displays a summary of all the switches in the fabric, as shown in Figure 5 on page 22.
Verifying fabric-wide device connectivity
To view and verify that you have fabric-wide device connectivity, display the fabric-wide devices. The
number of devices listed in the Name Server (NS) should reflect the number of devices that are connected.
1. Access the Switch Manager.
2. Click Name Server in the navigation bar.
3. Click the All Devices tab.
This tab displays information about all the devices in the fabric (see Figure 9).
