Chapter 3. Implementing the INRANGE FC/9000 Fibre Channel Director 185
After attaching our INRANGE setup to IBM’s corporate network, as shown in
Figure 3-5, we are now able to access the IN-VSN software from wherever we
are in the corporate network.

To gain actual access to the IN-VSN management tool, you will need to install an
IN-VSN client that can then communicate with the IN-VSN server over the
corporate network.
Instructions on how to install both the server and the client part of IN-VSN
software are provided in 3.2.5, “Installing the IN-VSN Enterprise Manager
software” on page 187.
Setting up high security network access
In the previous setup we described a network layout in which the Management
PC as well as the fabric components were connected to the corporate network.
However if this corporate network itself cannot be considered as secure enough,
we recommend that you separate the fabric components from the corporate
network. The only bridge between such a separated fabric management network
and the corporate network would be the Management PC.
